 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

how gifted are we?


I have tried to appreciate life's diversity of emotions;
massive swings from happiness…
into the quagmire of depression that stinks only of defeat;
Into broken love affairs…
that ends only with a broken heart;
Into broken dreams…
ending in nightmares that keep me still from my slumber,
forever fearful of the dark;
Into a reality that is never ending,
forever changing…
nothing remaining, neither good nor bad
neither happy nor sad
a diversity of emotions…
how gifted are we?
