If you have touched but one life took away pain, sorrow, strife infused some love, hope and light made all that's serious become all right If you have given but one song of cheering, winsome melody I would know that you belong as you sing them to all of we If you have given but one hope and with your words provided cope having lifted one with your song having touched a life gone wrong then may your blessings be complete and may you live long in your poetry 22 August 2000 ©Karilea Rilling Jungel revised 29 November 2001 |

BRAVO!!! If I had to list all the poets who have cheered me up and made my day brighter, you'd have to grant me a whole new thread of blue. This is a wonderfully true write, Karilea. Thanks to all of the passionate poets who help me keep my head above water or out of the trash can every single day. |

Kari darling sister of my soul, have you? Mmmmmmm you know you do. Your words like the fresh spring rain falls gently on the souls of weary and tired readers. They uplift and invigorate, they drop into silent moments when the souls contemplate their fate. They bring a hint of the summer sun, and the winds of change. Do you bring sunshine Kari darling sister of my soul, YES YES YES as always Puck To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

Karilea - May I say this is a beautiful poem of inspiration. I love it so much, I am (almost) reluctant to add a verse just for me... heh And if you have kicked but one cat, Or with your car you've made one flat, Then you will have done nothing wrong, In the eyes of old Long John. But, perhaps you will turn this old salt Away from his kitty-kicker fault Into a life that's kinder (I fear) Much like that of Balladeer's. |

A sweet song it is... Passions does touch a heart or two, doesn't it... and Sunshine smiles upon the whole, making everyone's days a little brighter... even LongJohn's... |

You have spread a lot of Sunshine, always. As many have here. I think I would be in much worse shape without all of you. Peace.. Sandra |

Yes, there are many poems and poets here who have touched me in a special way. This is indeed a warm and welcoming place. And it is poets like yourself who make it so. This is lovely Karilea If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |
