Old Spirit of Pride

Missing image
On a far off moutain's ledge
Falls my pride from where it came
Below lies the valley to catch it
But I am too high now
Never again to see it come alive
Goodbye old Spirit of Pride
Goodbye

    I am going to say that to lots of things and we MUST say this to a lot of sin and "bad spirit" in our lives. This is short and to the point.

    this is a good poem. it is short, but I have also
    written short ones and that does not mean that it
    is not good. I love that opening line:

    On a far off moutain's ledge
    Falls my pride from where it came

    I can actually picture this far off mountain ledge.
    which sets the image of the rest. of losing your
    pride. good write.
