A Sad Truth... Poem by Shaun Cronick

A Sad Truth...

Rating: 5.0


Human goodwill is too often written on soft sand.
Which the inept of waves may wash away.
This tide in the affairs of humankind,
Which carries to destruction many,
Who venture upon its current.
While others glide along it safely,
Without caring to avoid its,
Shallows or its miseries.
The same wind that blows one vessel into harbour.
Sometimes sinks another in the great depths.

Interesting points. Human goodwill comes from the Source of all good - God. It is written in their hearts, not in sand.
