Theodora (Theo) Onken - ~Truth~

...The Truth is all we have...
Treat it most gingerly...
For 'tis worth much more than a grain of salt-
It keeps us grounded in Reality...

Hold it near to our hearts-
...keep it filed away in our heads...
Knowing that in the end-'it will set us free..'.
...Or so, 'tis oft' time said!

And so, in the Morning of Our Dawn
...'Til the Evening of our Last Sunset...
We shall try, ever so earnestly-
(In Our Afternoon of Life) ...
To never end up in: 'The Truths Unwanted Debt'

Theodora (Theo) Onken
