Done what

2781

What have I done 

What shall I achieve 

When all I can do is cry just believe 

 

You mustn't look back when your hands on the plough 

 

Furrow deep break the clogs of the ground 

 

Spread abroad the principle wheat 

 

Instruct in discretion 

 

Simple 

 

Sweet 

 

Nurture

 

Brother - that reminds me of my mother 

 

And what we must go through 

 

Everybody ages

 

This is nothing new 

 

Sprung from the trap of life

 

It seems my world's retracting 

 

But I like to cast a line

 

 Something might be catching

    A fun read with catching lines of rhyme. Well done

    Valiantstar, this hit me hard. There is a beautiful persistence running through this...the sense of continuing the work even while carrying grief, uncertainty, and the weight of passing time. That really resonated with me, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
