RECOGNITION
Peter Woodgate
We can be right and yet be wrong
when not attuned to another’s song
and then at odds to understand
we let life slip like grains of sand
through fingers and without a sound
it gently mingles with the ground.
We realise then it’s too late to hide
the agony, caused by selfish pride.
