Bitter Folks
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

I have seen bitter folks,

Never thankful for what they have.

Living in a cocoon,

But never breaking free.

 

Thoughts are the nails

That keep them secured.

Happiness is fleeting,

If they know it at all.

This is so true. I choose to find joy in every situation. To be bitter rots the soul.

It is tiring to be with people that can find no happiness in life. I choose to have a half full glass and enjoy my life.

I have seen better folks, as well. Really no sense in being bitter, at all.
