People Canyons By themselves, these decisions do not weigh so heavily, it’s your refusal to help that vexes; when you know a misstep could have life-long consequences for these two lives we've created. Unyielding, your metaphorical back to us, the distance always evident now widens into an abyss of your own making. If you believe these children don’t know a canyon when they see one, then you truly are blind. © 2002 Corinne Bailey [This message has been edited by Corinne (01-04-2002 12:54 PM).] |

 (sigh) Soooooooo well-said, sweet friend, we can all make such mistakes that create such extenuating circumstances that build canyons before our pathes, but no one is blind to them, and if we can work together to love together, we can move them aside and build tunnels on through them! (kiss on cheek) Sooooooo well-said, sweet friend, we all love you so mcuh! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Corrine, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Excellent write, Corinne, excellent. My perception of truth will somehow never quite be the same..and so I write. |

Unyielding...ahh, what a horrible word, for if the reed doesn't bend to the wind, it surely breaks in time...very good write, Cor...very gentle smile |

This is a sad poem, Corinne. My I'm-a-male-I've-gotta-fix-this gene is getting stirred up here. lol |

Corinne~ This aches right off the page, sweetie~ Such a chasm is difficult to bridge unless the 'other' party is willing to see themselves falling into the canyon~ *hugs* ... *big HUGS* This is spectacular emoting~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Oh yes they certainly do see it...and it does not take long...The children always feel it deeply... Your way of saying it was very well done. |
