Division Bells

(there are always two sides to every story)

while confrontation and contempt

make futile bridges that's for sure

cement on stone builds by the day

tall walls are thickened with manure

division screams across the miles

away those smiling faces now

it's blistered hearts and tears that smart

when love is all but torn apart

Hello, Christine! :)
Reading your feelings here, gets me wondering what we can do to solve our problems, and what the root issues are. When I listen to the national news after dinner, everyone seems passionate and argumentative. What really disgusts me are the opinion shows; which air on news channels, but are essentially political propaganda. People rally behind bizarre causes, seemingly always ready to fight for them. Maybe they're all fighting for the same cause, just not communicating it well. Haha

Dear mattavelli, too much politics these days sadly. Best not to listen to it :) Thank you for the read and review.

Harry doesn't appear all that happy anymore ... not that he ever really was ... but the couple doesn't seem to have left behind the press or publicity, and don't get me going on Oprah.

Good one Chris.

Thank you Ted. I can't see the Palace airing their dirty linen in public. If this fiasco is resolved, it will be done behind closed doors. Always sad when family falls out. When that happens, there are never any winners. Hope all is ok with you and thanks for checking in. Have a good weekend.

All is well Chris. Yes, pity isn't it, but then maybe they forgot the Queen has MI5

The healing starts with forgivness.
a small poem with huge advice,
love it

[Chris Shaw]

Yes it does start with forgiveness and sooner rather than later. Leave it and the differences may become too difficult to breach. Everyone loses out then. Thank you for your wise words Dale. All the very best.

God, those bells are loud...
and I think I have stepped in that manure once too often and need new love shoes.
But their side is just as legitimate...takes two to quit dancing by that wall, or two to climb over it together.

They sure are clanging at the moment Jacob. Hope there is some resolve, but if there is it won't be done in public. Tradition maketh Monarchs. It's a culture thingy. But there ARE two sides to every story :)) Methinks someone needs to pick up the phone quick :))
