Changed Forever This years holiday season seems subdued, somber, even quiet. Haunted by September day of infamy when the world changed forever. Feeling like a lessening... a reservation in spirit and soul. Perhaps explained by honor, respect for those who have gone before. Our soldiers hunt for justice seek twisted madmen responsible. Our nation has unified with sorrow tragedy setting granite resolve. Everything we have cherished forever changed, turned outside in. We struggle with our new reality defined with red, white and blue. Methinks we all need a holiday a party, joyous birthday celebration! A reminder that good shall triumph as the world changes forever...again. ~~~~~~~~~ Merry Christmas to each and all! Tramp Poet: |

You have certainly summed up the feelings of this year's Christmas season. It seems hard for anyone to get into a party spirit. Guess we all need to make more effort to be happy! Betty Lou Hebert |

Your poem is intrigueing. No matter the state of the world, the Lord's birthday will still come to bring us new hope. Joyce |

Very well expressed, Daniel. Yes, nothing will ever be the same...again. I just finished watching Pearl Harbor. I never had an inkling that it was so devastating a disaster. Over 3 thousand died that day too. I suppose madmen will always roam the earth reaping destruction where they will. We owe a debt to those who are willing to die to protect us from them. We also need to let the peace of the Lord become more meaningful to us in these very un-peaceful times. |
