Always here, we find compassion, love
in times of sorrow
or happiness

Care and concern for
each other
when someone is away, missing,
not here
for whatever cause or
reason

Everyone wonders, prays, cares
for the reason
they...he or she are missing
Desiring to help and encourage
in some small way...word
or deed

To help ones who are down-trodden
with circumstance
Saying words through poetry or response
to each other

Such harmony and love
found here
Friendship, kindness, love
on these pages
of blue

Amazing what is here
A "family of friends"
united together in love
and friendship
~~~~~~~

~Thanks to all of you for being yourselves~

So true, Kielo. Wouldn't it be good for the whole world to
experience just a little of the compassion and care that
is found on PIP. I'm so proud of this place that Ron keeps going for us.
I know you are, too...

A circle of friendship and prayers, always.

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn
