Today I’ve added four poems. Three of them are mine and one is (a second poem) by Robert Frost. | |
My three are titled: “Lost And Found“, “Julie’s Poem” and “This I Hold As True“. The Frost poem is titled: “Mending Wall“. | |
My poem, “This I Hold As True” was my response (meager as it is) to Frost. I do think we each have walls and I’m not sure his poem does much (if anything) to explain or reduce the walls. But then, I’m not sure that was Frost’s intent either. My own feeling is that he was pointing them (walls) out and (mildly) mocking them. | |
“Julie” was a young lady I knew from high school days. She heard I wrote poetry and asked me to write her something – so I did. Showing that it really is a small world, Julie went to school and became a registered nurse. Five years ago, when I had my heart problem and went to the ER, she was the triage nurse – and in a way – helped save my life! | |
