Greatly written poem, unfortunately cowardice is shared among a lot of hypocrites, and they are a majority.
Nothing mars an honest person's character like cowardice. Excellently written and thought provoking.
When countries are led by cowards and frauds chaos must be the result. Good write! I say put dragons in charge!
Yes once upon a time he too was a good man. Only thst in this decision he could not take courage and witness gor the right. Good thought.
Great admirations Rose even this negative topic you made it so good.
. But i see where Kim Barney is going with his comment (below) , though some 'good men (and women) do do SOMETHING and they end up on the wrong end of a stick (to coin a phrase, perhaps) . bri : )
Well, let's not fault the coward for his cowardess. It's his choice and he is not really to 'blame' for the evil in this world.
The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.
A coward dies many times before his or her death! ! ! ! When needed most! They turn to hide. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
A beautiful poem indeed. Cowards remain cowards always. They shut the doors when it is time to testify against the devil. Very nicely done. Loved it.
Such a powerful and meaningful write you have written here Rose Marie. A great and literally soul-searching metaphorical poem that certainly touches many bases and to make one think about his/her attributes or vices. Loved it! Your last verse is glorious to read. A full score and quickly added to my moral or lack of morality and true grit favourites. Thank you Rose Marie for sharing your unique poetry gift.
He lives an honest life His heart is pure And truth never stumbled at his door.
This was a joy to read Rose-Marie Bravo! ! TFS
