I am breath, for beating heart I am life, both end and start I am love, found everywhere I am compassion, for you to share I am hope, in a world dark I am truth, though seen as stark I am light, the show the way I am forgiveness, when sins waylay I am peace, for all the world I am joy, with babies curled I am faith, when day is dim I am the arms that hold you in I am the one with many names Call on me, I'm still the same I the creator of everything I the one to bring offering I am your God whatever the cost I will save you when you're lost I am whispers on the breeze Reminding us that we must please A God who made the earth and sky Treats us gently, lifts us high. Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |

"I am life, both end and start" I'd like to say that was my favorite line but as I kept reading onward, most all of them grabbed me. Clear, concise, and very well written. I applaud. Really enjoyed this one. To capture and live a moment is truly living |

Kethry, the simplicity is wonderful... you fly! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Kathry, I am in awe!! Wonderful writing!! LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

kaile and interloper, you are ...both so kind, so generous and loving and out of your mind. Don't you have enough to do that you go searching archives "blue" Live well Keth Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant - Thoreau |
