D. Thurmond Aka Jef (James Everett Falcon)

D. Thurmond Aka Jef (James Everett Falcon)

Brother's keeper

Ripples

We are ripples
On a never ending lakes,
Like those crystals
Too finely made, that breaks.
We are mortal
And bound to make mistakes,
But few will pray,
“God forgive us all.”

(1978)

Written under the name, "JEF".

@Charlotte B. Williams: This was a poem I wrote in the 80's and recently revised. --- At times the world does bite harder than other times, yet many blessings are ours. Thanks for asking, I am doing well and I pray the same for you and yours.
