The holes in our fence are the holes into our heart. This was a great expression of the vulnerability we have even when we think we can shut it off..........Jerry

THIS REMINDS ME OF THE 'FENCES' THAT ONE BUILDS BETWEEN THEMSELVES AND JESUS CHRIST AND THEN....'FOR YOU SHOWED ME THERE ARE HOLES IN MY FENCE'....THAT ONLY 'HE' CAN FILL. THIS IS A UNIQUE LOOK AT THE PAINS ONE WILL GO THROUGH TO PREVENT WHAT IS BEST FOR THEM. A WONDERFUL WORK THAT IS WELL DONE. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS.

Somehow this confirms that "the enemy is a good friend". It may be painful, but it's best way to learn about oneself.

intelligently written metaphor ... when we realize there are gaps in our defenses, and are vulnerable to others whims, we feel exposed and unguarded ...

Yikes. A fence with holes in it is a very interesting metaphor for life in this uncertain and sometimes hostile world. Hugs, J'nia

We're all human.
Some with more holes than other
Some with bigger holes to fill.
Enjoyed reading
Understood very clearing
Because I'm a fence builder myself

Bless are them that can see the holes on their fences, because them will know from where the malice will enter.

Dear Cryssa, This is a nice poem but reading it I was really touched.
No matter how many holes seem to be in your fence you are always protected, laughs best who laughs last. Wait and see and keep your dignity. Love Emile
