Breathe Through It
My # 23 for National Poetry Month
bad things come in threes
its easy really
anyone can count that high
not such a high number that people give up
not such a low number
that we don't test the mettle
of the person involved.
I am at number three.
Breathe.

Thank you Frank! You are a gem!
I loved this picture as well Bill! Thank you!
Simple, but profoundly beautiful. The quote is so true, sometimes it takes a tortured soul to touch others, be it potery or music.
As always, outstanding.
This is terrific. Sharing. Voting up and more.
Frank is right - Wow
Great poem and yes troubles come and they keep coming sometimes. The best way is to take a deep breathe and things will change for the better. Dark clouds are always blown away by the wind.
Thank you for reminding me, I really needed it. Jamie
How many times have we heard that? I like the way you put it best! Cool picture too!
Voted up, awesome, and interesting.
Have you heard of Sia? She's an amazing artist and this poem of yours reminded me of her...love her songs (and her writings) just like how I love your poetry.
Profound, simply beautiful and yes, when all else fails, sing!

Thank you Ruby! Still counting!
I was hooked with the picture. The poem was a wonderful bonus.
wow this one just stopped me in my tracks...
The old adage, count to ten before striking out. Breathing is good. I guess I'm a two or three. lol
