Proud Peacocks

Posted June 5th, 2008 by joyce

Some are proud peacocks,
Spectacular tail feathers,
Spreading out behind.
His humility, not pride,
Marks the man I stand beside.

Joyce,

As I read this piece the very first thing that came to mind was Mr. Ostentatious himself....Donald Trump. I quess there's still hope for us simple men with a smile and an idea.

Well said,

Pete

yes, Pete

Joyce,

It's me who should thank you for writing pieces that warrent a thoughful response. I can guarantee you that I will never read one of your pieces without giving you my thoughts on it. After all, that's what we're all here for.

Write on,

Pete

you're great, Pete

This should be a two way street! If I had the time I would read and comment on many more poems, but there are only so many hours in each, and I am tired when I get home from work. Thanks again for the nice comment!
