Social Media

I think social media 

has taken away the 

intimacy of conversation

one on one with a partner.

Instead of conversing with a 

significant other people are glued

to their iPods, cell phones and computers.

The art of conversation is a

long last art of the past.

Young people today are

non-conversant.  

They only know how to text.

If people had more one on one time,

perhaps there would be less crime.

For to skip out on a dime would be a fine.

Who knows when the tide will turn.

If we have hope,

and see beyond the scope.

Then all is not lost

Trust

The art of trust is a work of art.

I find it hard to trust.

I find it enthralling when it happens.

It's great to be able to trust.

Especially when you find someone.

To be able to talk openly about our

hopes, dreams, aspirations and goals.

To go to your one and only 

and speak your truth.

Is a miracle.

To be able to speak

From your heart

Is a masterpiece.

To let your loved one

hear you is wonderful.

It's courageous.

It's marvelous.

Something to behold.
