Remembering bitterness

As I on this
Beautiful morning
Trim the bitterness
Off some delicious
Fresh strawberries
I am about
To breakfast upon.

Brought unwanted
Memories
Of a beautiful woman
I knew once.

Her charming smile
Her beautiful face
The sweetness of nectar that laced
Her sensuous tender lips
Were all a masquerade.

For time revealed
The bitterness
of her heart and soul
A bitter woman
Down to the bone.

Melancholy, brave, nicely worded. I pity the strawberries by way of comparison. John

How could we ever appreciate the sweet
without first having tasted of the bitter?
A tale well told.

Whole Idea Is Keep Fond Memories,Turn Walk Away
Is To Let Go Do Not Never Look Back!

I Can Have A Lot Of Hate In Me No Bitterness
Just Simple Word: Revenge-I Am Hell Bent On Revenge!

Its Like Saying If Shoe Fits Wear It,i.e. You Can Still
Be Nice Even In Worst Situations (Even Your Thoughts)
But You Do Not Have Tell Anybody Whats In On Your Mind!

Its Kool Write Right On...

TRASK...

It happens on both sides of the bitterness aisle, William. It is a downright shame that the courtship cannot continue through the first ten years of marriage.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
