Truth

Beverly Young Jones 1954 (Norfolk)

Free verse
                                Truth

      Truth does not cower.
       Truth does not bend.
       Truth does not break.
        Truth does not change.
        Truth stands no matter where it goes.
         
        Truth is perfect.
         Truth is pure.
         Truth shines through darkness.
          Truth does not need an explanation.
          Truth is truth no matter what it looks
              like!
