Points to Ponder: Poetry and Prose to Challenge the Mind and Heart Elizabeth Pearson

Do you know what you Believe?How do you know if you are right?What should be the final test? AS YOU READ MY POEMSYou're my "audience of one."I hope to hold you captiveFrom the moment you've begun. But, alas, it's for you to decideIf staying is worth your while. Will you decide I bore youOr will you like my style? Perhaps the subjects coveredWill draw you back again, Curious to see what truths I seeIn the rhymes that I have penned. These are but lessons I have learned, Many that I feel should not be spurned. You may applaud or disagree, And, without repercussion, take issue with me. I beg you to enter with an open mind, Taking time to think through and digest. Discard what, to you, does not applyBut linger o'er what you deem best. And, if there's but one you can pass along ,'Twill serve to fill my heart with song.
