Such a pretty
little doormat
always there
with a smile
waiting and
willing to be
stepped on

I wish you'd
realize
just how
important
you are.

My dear friend
you've let them
taint you
again.

There are those who never pick up on their worth, Trina.

Indeed, Jerry. There are, and its heartbreaking to see such wonderful people be "doormats"

Nobody should be a doormat. I hope your friend realizes that, ---- A nice little poem.

Never fails to make me stop and think. Fine writing, Trina. Agreed, one should not be a doormat for long.
