This is a test …testing, testing do you hear me? …testing, testing do you see me? …testing, testing one two three in the silence of my room I wonder the tests I shall resume when away from stage and microphone when I'm away and all alone …testing, testing …one two three where all of life is but a stage where some of us may reach old age where some of us will be called away before we've had the chance to say …testing, testing do you hear me? …testing, testing do you see me? So please do know when the testing is done exit stage left, to sit with the Son. ©KRJ 29 May 2000 Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Hello, is there anybody out there??? This is what this reminded me of immediately, Karilea... sing along to your heart's desire, we are listening... regards, sudhir... Hey you, out there in the cold, Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me? Hey you, standing in the aisle, With itchy feet and fading smile, can you feel me? Hey you, don't help them to bury the light. Don't give in without a fight. Hey you, out there on your own, Sitting naked by the phone, would you touch me? Hey you, with your ear against the wall, Waiting for someone to call out, would you touch me? Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone? Open your heart, I'm coming home.... by Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) - The Wall |

I loved this poem! Yes, all the world is a stage, and it is also a test. A great combo of metaphors. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |
