When they had reached some distance in the woods, they slowed down their pace and walked single file.

From the poem, “Hate”, comes forth the words: “Like a brush fire
That never ends, ‘hate’ just spreads
Throughout the neighborhood,
Though it does little good.
In its wake, hate keeps burning,
Always churning,
And using everything that is good
For fodder and food.
Fanned by the winds from the Northeast,
Hate breeds hate
Among those that are blessed
And those that are cursed by fate…….”

The Day Of the Hidden Truth Poems Is Written In Memoriam To Martin Freier
From the poem, “Life And The Clock” come forth the powerful words of reflection:
……”Too many precious moments pass buy,
Without people asking why.
When they look around,
The day is gone.
Tomorrow comes on the wings
Of a bird that sings.
No way to bring yesterdays
Back again;
Be it joy or pain.
Oh yes, we sometimes remember……
Life is like a clock.
It keeps rolling on and on,
Without a pause.

The Words Echoed And Echoed Over And Over Again
From the poem, “Daring To Be Me” and from the book of poems, The Day Of The Hidden Truth Poems by poet Martin Freier, here are some of the powerful reflective words that he writes:

Flakes, and pimples that age
Etched into my face.
Under my eyes,
I see disgrace, though I realize
There is little I can do……”

From the words of echoing power and from the mind and spirit of the poet, Martin Freier comes the true words of hidden truths:
“Miles from shore I felt lost in a stormy sea.
All alone without a friend,
I contemplated my untimely end.
I saw nothing but hungry
Sharks circling all around me.
The stormy clouds in the sky
Gave me no shelter.
I found no peace in slumber,
For I always woke up with empty dreams…..”
