Lawrence S. Pertillar Poems

Evidence and proof,
That changes have come.
Enforcing many to accept,
The reality and truth of it.
...

Guided by ego.
And dust collecting,
Gold plated trash.
Splashed upon,
...

It only takes the telling,
Of one lie.
Told to believe hidden,
Behind a single tree.
...

Whenever you may be in despair.
Or whenever you may feel no one cares.
Know that I am here for you.
Know that what I say to you is true.
...

Practice.
The having of good thoughts.
Seek them sought.
In such upsetting depressing days.
...

A severe,
And lasting lesson to learn.
Is the presence,
Of the present faith tester.
...

Thoughts to never have before,
To think.
Would one day become prioritized,
On one's mind kept occupied.
...

A genuinely caring for others,
Does not take...
The convenience,
Of announcements to make.
...

Examined passed actions.
Given more time,
To ponder over them.
Would be less time spent,
...

Devastating!
Heartbreaking.
Painful and shocking.
The reality of truth.
...
