In the dark and cruel world I see,
A young untamed caterpillar,
Crawling hopelessly in the wind,
On the trees and bushes,
She stumbled and fell.
Rolled back and crawled again.
Till she hid herself inside her skin,
Where a beautiful life is about to begin.
Lovely motivational piece of poetry depicting courage, hope, and faith; as one strives for a future greater than past and present deplorable situations. A well articulated and nicely encapsulated piece of poetry insightfully penned with conviction. Thanks for sharing Majorie. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
Sad from the start..but in the end you will feel the hope that another phase of life is waiting to unfold..
The world is cruel becsuse of the wicked people among us. Nice work.
