Present To Sharpen Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Present To Sharpen



Through the good times and bad,
I held onto my anger

Either happy or sad,
it was never a stranger

Beginning unto end,
it would surface quite often

Past and future beguiled
—the present to sharpen

(Villanova Pennsylvania: November,2017)

Anger is very thought provoking. This does not see condition of sadness or happy condition. But we hope for peace and happiness. A brilliant poem is well drafted.10
