Poetry Friday
February 21, 2008
I’ve been thinking a lot about family which brings me to my short selection for this week’s Poetry Friday:
“There’s one sad truth in life I’ve found, While journeying east and west
The only folks we really wound, Are those we love the best.
We flatter those we scarcely know, We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow, To those who love us best.”
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox
