The Opposite

Precious
you
said
I am
to
you

Webster
said
it
means

Treasured
Valued
Loved
Beloved
Adored
Important
Dear

To
you,
it
must
mean
the
opposite.


I found a book on writing this past weekend. There are exercises in the book to broaden and poke and prod us wannabe writers in directions that will hopefully produce a little bit of quality work. The assignment today was to write a poem. Since I have been dabbling in poetry here already...I decided to dabble some more today!

This one comes from a personal experience. Someone I love once said I was precious to them and then proceeded to act just the opposite. I am sure it is a universal theme. I am sure at different times in my life I have been the perpetrator as well as the victim. I have learned tons about life from my experience above, I hope you can learn a little bit too!

Living Happily in the Moment!
