Day 177 of the 365 day poem challenge.
Word of the day trenchant meaning: "having keenness and forcefulness and penetration in thought."
Take solace
When danger is near
When clouds are grey
When strangers frown
And your head is downcast
Take it in absorb it
When friends recoil
When grief descends
When sombre omens appear
And you are lost in fear
Take time to remember
Take time to forget
When heroes seem empty
When rhetoric no longer talks
When speeches are worn
And promises are torn
Take reflection be trenchant
When rivals tear
When countries do war
When the world collapses
And everyone seems divided
Take note it will not always be
Take note very few want this
