In Poetry We Say... "

 Today's format challenge is "In Poetry We Say" as a response to some cliche` saying in English. A few examples she threw out there for us to try were: "Such is Life," "It Is What It Is," "That's the Way the Cookie Crumbles," or "Let Bygones Be Bygones..."

I'm gonna try "Through Thick and Thin..."

I Will Be Here For You

In English we say,

Through thick and thin,

but in Poetry we say,

trudging through the 

muck and mire

I am here.

Where the veil is thin

and death is well-versed,

I will be here.

When life is bulging at the seams

and friendship is 

neglected

I am still here. 

-Carrie Horn
