Deep Coping when pain comes very deep pain weak beings crumble strong beings gain have you ever imagined from whence comes your gift? have you ever imagined what pain then gives you lift? how do you imagine the violin sings so sweet or that a piano's note can render your next heart's beat that a line of rhyme can tear your mind asunder or that wind can muster forth the thunder from pain from pain of life and living from pain of strife and giving but somehow we go forth to give of our worth to place our place on earth in pain of death and birth so the music sings on violin string on a poet's line in search of rhyme in the thunder of a drummer's beat in the allegro of a pianist's heat in the deepest coping comes the strength of hoping a lifeline, coping, an art deep coping finds its start hold fast, and embrace deep coping has its place |

Ah we wouldnt apperiate life so much without pain. Nice write  Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning. |

Superb to the ultimate! Lady in White, I've written on this subject often, but surely never so uniquely and beautifully. Well done! |

out of our pain - comes so much that we find value in - It is hard to comprehend - but how else could we bear the pain? you speak to me so clearly as you speak from within |

Difficult times always bring out the strength in the strong and destroys the weak... |

Very nice and very true...a disaster to some is a challenge to others...fear for one is a thrill or an opportunity for another...James |

when pain comes very deep pain weak beings crumble strong beings gain" I had to come back for another read, and to put this in my library because I rarely hear the term "deep pain" but I've always used it, and now I see it differently, deep coping thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I very much enjoyed this poem. Very creative writing. Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood. T S Eliot |
