I am Honored to be Awarded--

I was honored earlier this week with an award from Jean over at Jean's Musings..
She said to me that she always wonders where my inspiration comes from.. I can only say that life is sometimes more inspiration that I want.. I treasure each moment .. I think it often comes through in my writing.. bad days might bring out dark or lonely words and bright days will inspire funny tales.. Thanks Jean!

3Word Wednesday~

fragile, rampant, tremor

The Lie

I smelled it on your breath
long before was cast

I know it was not first
nor will it be the last

rumors rampant I stood still
as other backs were turned

a fragile bond we shared
if so easy it was spurned

a tremor shakes my soul
as anger makes me weak

I choke upon the words
that I feel the need to speak

I trusted what you said
I lifted you up high

But you tossed it all away
with the utterance of a lie

One Stop Poetry~
========================

Thanks for stopping by my blog today.. this week has been a busy one.. is it just me or does time seem to be going faster and faster?.. Some days seem so short.. never enough time to do all that I need to.. I thought about shutting off all of the clocks.. but I guess even that wouldn't help.. I welcome both comments and followers.. Have a great day!
