A Candle's Light The news came today, of your tragic fate in a world of harm, such feelings of hate Why are there those who harm, our soft and young leaving us with quesitons whose answers never come You were so young, a bright future ahead and now your light is out, leaving hearts to dread The world that seemed safe with no thought of harm is now gray, forever without your charm The violence out there, it seems too much for it has taken your smile and your gentle touch It is we,the ones left behind to remember how bright our world was when it had your candle's light. < !signature--> [This message has been edited by Danny Holloway (edited 01-17-2000).] |

Welcome to Passions, Danny. This is a sad yet beautiful poem. Check your email for a special welcome! Denise And slight is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth; For he who is honest is noble, Whatever his fortunes or birth.~~~Alice Cary, ~Nobility~ |

This is lovely. ~Astraea "Sometimes stars can only be seen in darkness." "Sorrow's crown of sorrow is remembering happier things." |

Danny: Wish I could give you the answers to your questions but I can't...sad to say.. HUGS Don't ask me where I'm going, just listen when I'm gone and far away you'll hear me singing softly to the dawn. |
