Blighted Yet Delighted

The smallest seed of faith is better than the largest fruit of happiness. - Thoreau

uninvited

unrequited

shortsighted and indicted

blindsided

landslided

chided and derided

undecided

misguided

lopsided and divided

whispered and confided

collided

subdivided

faith still coincided

united and excited

Author's Note

"Decay and disease are often beautiful, like the pearly tear of the shellfish and the hectic glow of consumption." - Thoreau
