Each One..... Poem by Valerie Dohren

Each One.....

Rating: 4.9


Each one gives, each one takes
Sometimes loves, then foresakes

Each one wins, each one fails
Weighs the cost, tips the scales

Each to come, each to go
Rising high, sinking low

Each one came, each one left
Hearts to bind, hearts bereft

Each one laughs, each one cries
Each one lives, each one dies

I really love your couplets and the way they rhyme. Always easy flowing, never forced.

A fatalistic, truthful dose of realism, done with a swift and clever swipe of your pen-concise
