Traps—Ovi Poetry Challenge

Don’t tolerate that tiny lie.
Deception rules until a cry
demands to know the reason why
we took God’s joy away.

If truth be known, the lies we spread
are moldy, wormy, wretched bread.
They’re traps that no one would be fed
were they not so deceived.

I enjoy walking, poetry and short prose as well as taking pictures with my phone.
