Poetry is good for you!

Rudeness strikes a brittle heart
like an arrow piercing a glass bowl.
Kindness hides a shy smile
like a child holding black coal.
Anger shouts down a faint mind
like a tidal wave hitting a shoal.
Empathy guides a wavering step
as a friend goes for their goal.
Piece of mind comes from not
backing down as your story is told.

When things go bad
We all get mad
and say the cad
was just a fad
and then we're sad.

The blizzard rages on
as the town shivers inside
their homes.
Blankets strewn across
their bodies huddled
together for warmth.
Meager as it is
will it be enough?
Snow flakes whirl
around the white topped
houses of cold.
A single bell peals
as a new day dawns
Darkly.
Still laughter can
be heard from inside
one tiny hut.
After all they
are reciting poetry...

I figured I would post some of these poems up here because I am uninspired to actually blog anything lately. If I did all it would be is me moaning and complaining and I don't feel like doing that:)
