in sorrow, I searched the floor thinking that I belonged down here where life is dark, and cold, dank, and quiet, meant for feet, and under feet, I lay in sorrow but it was not for long that I lay in my quiet sorrow, the wailing long past, for tomorrow came and brought me you, and in you I found me again if I let you down by laying down, know that it was only for a moment and in that moment of quiet, I understood that we must all accept the dark in our lives, now and then to find the sun in our tomorrows, and to hear that there's a when and that is how I think of you again knowing that you gave me lift and reasons to go on.... |

This is a great poem. I myself have felt as if I where under feet and filled with sorrow. And it is true that "we must all accept the dark in our lives, now and then to find the sun in our tomorrows, and to hear that there's a when" very powerfull. this is going in my library thanks, Joe |

I can so relate to this.. I've felt these feelings and lived your words. This was a terrific poem, so honest, so filled with hope. I thank you.. Kate Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. |

To see this come up again, several weeks after first written, gives this poet a sense of joy that is hard to explain. For every word we put down, there is a reason... and all of you who have read this, just saw to that. Thank you. |

deep darkness cloaked me removing all dark shadows you walked in my life Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
