Summary: I thought about the words Spring Cleaning, what does it really mean? Aren’t we really cleaning out our lives?

Bring about balance
to all inner Karma.
remove all the cobwebs,
and polish your armour.

All alone on the sofa,
no-one else home?
Love is the voice,
the one on the phone.

Bring down the curtain
on a love so uncertain.
Don’t let its decay
leave your heart in dismay.

Wipe away the remains
of wasted tear stains.
For all that you know,
Someone loves you so...

Dedicated to my dear friend Lisa. As a good friend said to me - You are never alone! For anyone who has reached the end of the line, or simply recognises the need for change - It begin's and end's with you.

A reassuring poem for both your friend and friendships across the world.

Particularly like:

'Remove all the cobwebs,
and polish your armour'

you are never alone when you have friends, this is a fine poem I would just go back and change the capitals at the beginning of the lines where there is a preceding comma

good luck

take care

Thank you for commenting, much appreciated. I think sometimes the only way to restore harmony in our lives is to clear away that which makes us sad, or brings us down. Now is as good a time as any to make the necessary changes, and with change always comes new begining's, which has to be more exciting than being stuck in a rut. If you are alone, then give yourself a hug - your worth it!
