A simple little hook,
Hangs upon the wall.
There to do its duty,
So, the coats won’t fall.
Perhaps it not that simple,
The duty it performs.
Could it be more complicated,
Perhaps a few reforms?
What if it’s a symbol,
To show us what we need?
Be support to another,
Could that be our creed?
Look upon this simple hook,
As it looks back at you.
Have you done all that you could?
All that you should do?
Time upon the earth is short.
But we can leave a mark,
Walk with pride throughout your life,
And be another’s spark.
They are an amazing thing Pam, ambidextrous, single, multiple, and the uses just go on and on. Hail the Hook! Great verse dear lady 😀

I just love this poem Pam. Maybe we should be less like humans and more like the hook! I’m hooked at being another’s spark!

I started to say that we should all be hookers and then I realized what I just said! I think your last line is better…

Have just read some ‘well-meant’ poetry but it was stiff and rigid.:. Even the simplest poetry should flow and, dear Pamela, yours flows like a waterfall. Bravo.
