Fragile Hearts

This version of a poem was a response to another saw written online – which made me concerned for the person that was the subject of the poem. Feel it is very heartless to use social media in this way.  Never had this conversation with my dad – believe he didnt think of me this way but wish we had had more conversations about life and its meaning.

 

Fragile Hearts

Remember the words of dear old dad
“Make us proud of you – my dear
Try to be good and try to care
Dont play games with peoples hearts
Hearts are fragile and may have been trodden on before
by boots – size twenty four
Reallize – its not them – but could be you
Perhaps, its time to review
the things you do
(to others)”
