I wrote this for Memorial Day, I know it is simple.
But the message is the point and when trying to send a message. I believe in the saying
"Keep it simple stupid"

Sorrows Bane
Love is the one thing
That keeps are spirits whole
When Sorrow’s steady knocking
With hurts that touch our soul
When our world falls around us
And darkness fills our dreams
It's love that lifts our spirits
And bridges Sorrow's streams
Love beckonds from the brink
Of being swallowed by the stream
Dispels depression
And warms us with it's gleam
Love helps us through the horror
Of love lost in some way
Through mans trespass
Or angels spirit them away
Love comes to give us comfort
And wipe away the tears
And love will be with us
When Sorrow's shadow nears
Love's light whisper
Will stifle Sorrow's gain
In life's losses
Love is Sorrow's bane

Yes
Love is the one thing
that will not turn away
and you can only hide from
simply put is always there

though you said it much better than I.
It speaks through you heart and dream
life will conform to thee in your belief

Love

Lovely positive poem about love. On all the roads a lover goes down the search for positive is the greatest driving force.  But who could ever describe it completely... this is a good poem!

Thank you Ethome
Thank you Love
I made this out for the family through an ecard I sent. This poem was the message, and it seemed to give some of the family comfort
Thanks again
