Go

Fielding constant interruptions.
Managing other’s disruptions.

Stroking egos & nodding wise.
Warm hearths with truth & kindly lies.

Gaming out solutions for them.
Quenching every dramatic whim.

Rare, I help & am helped in turn.
Begin to share & blithely spurned.

Ears are favored with zero voice.
Equal take & give’s not a choice.

Patience thin; still calls are answered.
Biting tongues just may cause cancers.

New chance encounters are so few.
So, what is patience meant to do?

Shush perseveres; til limit’s met.
If someone listens…ready, set.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
