Its April of 2017 and Day 17 of A to Z Challenge. I am doing Idiom a day and 8 line poem for the idiom.
Idiom: Quick Fix
Meaning: It is an easy or a temporary solution that might not last for long
Poem:
When trust was broken,
Heart, let down,
Promises betrayed,
Faith overlooked,
Loyalty disgraced,
Eyes wet,
‘Sorry’,
Is not even a quick fix!
Note: All the challenge prompts can be found HERE.
Oh Wow! This is such a true statement!

I did finish all remaining till Z last weekend to post one by one. Unexpectedly, what took more time and thoughts was letter ‘V’. It finally turned out as my favorite.
Thank you so much.. 🙂 many.. 🙂

Good one !!
But I believe as humans we tend to do mistakes.
But most people justify or defend it by giving some logic or explaination.
It takes courage to accept your fault and See it from the other party’s perspective.
Owning it up, And asking for an apology.
If you look at it, from the perspective of the one at fault, It’s the best they could do.
And once you accept it, It seems to be a quick fix.
It takes courage to own it.

I very much agree with your thoughts. Until we speak up and own certain things, things look so much impossible.
I have known people who come with ‘sorry’ when need of work.
Thank you so much for the thoughts.. 🙂

Excellent! Sorry may not be a quick fix but a heart-felt apology is surely a start.

“Sorry” isn’t much of a fix, but often it is the only fix. Nicely done

You are so right–“sorry” is just the beginning of making amends, repairing trust…faith…relationships.

Loved this. Just saying “sorry” doesn’t work unless your actions are showing something totally opposite of that.

Ouch. I guess it depends a lot on the situation whether sorry is truly enough or no.

Well done. Beautiful written. A simple sorry won’t fix anything when the situation is so bad. It’ll probably even make matters worse. A very good take on an idiom. 🙂
