A Cartoon of Love & Truth

CajunLady

February 23 
Free verse
Truth stings
Truth isolates
Truth flees
Love remains
Hidden

When I was a child
I watched a cartoon
"Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer"
I felt like the toys on the island of misfit toys

Full of love
Reaching for love
But sad of the affairs
Of life being judgemental
Life isn't fair

You are not my kind
Leave us alone
Your light sting and depress
Go away!

Truth for what it is
A cartoon
