I write what I feel…

Multi Sided

My heart is on the inside

But I sometimes wear it

On the outside of my sleeve

And then there’s the wrong side

Or the left side

And the right side

Looking on the dark side

Or the bright side

Being on the winning side

Not the losing side

Is the upside

Not the downside of life

Not to mention the blindside

When you fall in love

I am a middle-aged South African woman, living in Johannesburg. I began writing poetry towards the end of May 2010. I love animals – sometimes more than people! I am back after a break. Thanks for still being here, if you are! Missed you! xxx

  16. Look at the bright side…

    From Alfred Lord Tennyson’s poem In Memoriam:27, 1850:

    I hold it true, whate’er befall;
    I feel it, when I sorrow most;
    ‘Tis better to have loved and lost
    Than never to have loved at all.

    Bless You
