will you break through this shellto seek the gold inside?will you spill me outto find the treasure that I hide?what pain must I endureto melt into what’s pure?this essence beneathso guarded and concealedthis glorious worthwaiting to be revealed
My name is Toni Cross, and I was raised on a farm in the far north of the United States. I love to read and write and I hope to use those hobbies in a greater way in the days to come.
One of my passions is using whatever influence I have to make a difference in the world.
Really loved this one Toni…have jury duty so it’s hard to get anything done. 😦
Thanks, Charles. Good for you, doing your part in the fight against injustice. Maybe it will inspire new poems…
