Joyce Nightingale-holder
Two Countries Speak: Poems and Remembrances is a rendition of poems and reminiscences showcasing author Joyce P. Nightingale-Holder's early life in Barbados and her current experiences in America. BLINDFOLDSWe wear our blindfolds, Blindfolds of many colors. Like sunglasses of convenience, With tinted lenses fashioned to our fancyThat sometimes hide what's painful to acknowledge. From time to timeConscience removes the blindfoldsAnd therein lies the book. The book of fears and prejudicesThe book of challengesBigger than friends, Bigger than family, The book of selfA workbook we all must engageEach day, every day. Do we dare show The pages of our foibles? And stand exposed for prying eyes to witnessCan we be bold and shift the paradigm? Or put the blindfolds on and walk away Will we accept discomfort to know truth, Or will we stay within the realm of familiar?
