Another Two Short Poems

The first poem was written while visiting a friend recently. They were going through some rough times that I couldn’t help them with. I hope they enjoyed it, and it helped their spirits. I think you all will enjoy it as well.

Do not look at this rock

And see a weathered stone

But look at how it has stood the test time

It has survived all that would destroy it

It has survived the coldest winters

And the strongest storms

When you look deep within your mind

I think you will see

This stone is not old and weathered

But it has been refined by the passage of time and the sea

This second poem is the expression of frustration with some recent life challenges.

Do not judge me by the company I keep

Most would not tread where I sleep

I strive to keep my honor clean

But at times I have been seen with those of less honor

So, please

Do not judge me for the company I am made to keep
