I Fear Poem by Elisabeth Wingle

I Fear

Rating: 4.5

I fear death
I fear evil
I fear cruel and heartless people
I fear guns
I fear strangers
I fear things we say in anger
I fear loss
I fear the pain
I fear the world has gone insane

are the foreigner poets who commented missing it or am i? ? or are they too polite to mention it (or am i mistaken? ; heaven forbid!) ? ? did you really mean word or did you REALLY MEAN world? ? ha ha i liked the feel of this and the rhyming. take two aspirins, lock your doors, and put the police on speed dial. have a good night! bri :) p.s. which good-looking woman is you in the photo? :) AND, welcome to PH!

Thank you for the correction, I do proofread, honestly. I just don't do it very well. It is refreshing to meet someone one PH, that has a sense of humor! As we all say please feel free to read and review my poems I am the blonde, which I never ever thought I would say. I am a natural born brunette, who in a moment of insanity colored my hair. It's back to normal I need to put up a new pic!

We all need to stand together. Fear is there but the alternative is we give in. Thankyou for your wonderful lines.

Fear - a conglomeration of sinister shadows without substance is aptly depicted in the piece. A well texted and nicely drafted poem. Thanks for sharing Anne.

I see you and Bri have put the world aright. Don't worry, we all make mistakes, as an ex-girlfriend said looking pointedly looking at me! It's bed time here in the Uk so I'll sign off till tomorrow. It's been a great evening reading your work.

ok, NOW i see your answer to my comment. and, NO, i do not recall ever seeing it. these responses don't seem to come to my inbox with other messages and i would rarely return to a poem's page to look for one. blonde! when i was about to retire from being a post office window clerk, i considered dying my hair blond, mostly for shock value, but my concern for the environment and for my wallet and my health kept me the beautiful brunette i USED to be! bri :) ok, , if you and wes wish me to be part of the 'couplet team', have wes contact me again and i'll see what i can do for ya.
