Margaret Alice Second - Beads of Understanding (correction)

Описание

A broken necklace, beautiful transparent beads strung on a thread and as it broke, beads scattered everywhere just like the friendship with my twin sis broke and the beads of understanding scattered and were lost The necklace as broken as our relationship, too few beads of the necklace left just as too few beads of understanding remain between us, when she forgives me – for not being able to weave through peak time traffic to Be at her side while organising a tow truck – the driver said he lost his way and never got there, she thinks it is my fault that towing did not take place until highway patrol came to her aid – I called her repeatedly But she was so angry, she shouted and switched off, when she sarcastically remarked that there were a few people who loved her, I imitated her and repeated the remark - never heard from her again – why do people hate it When you show them their demeanour by imitating them, why do they take offence yet they expect you to not to do so when they address you in such dreadful tones – when she forgives me one day, I shall endeavour to Make no remarks or ask questions – ah, but I cannot play the role she requires to prevent any conflict – best would be to wait until old age makes us wise – or stay away from each other for however long eternity takes to teach us Mutual understanding… Friday 6 September 2013 Margaret Alice Second poemhunter.com/poem/beads-of-understanding-correction/
