Her soul’s like crystal snowflakes Broken easily amid the dust Shattered from the pleadings ‘You must! You must!’ She only wants to dissolve like ice Wants to just to melt away But icy breath of haunting lovers Entreat her yet to stay Trampling her gentle heart Devouring her life’s source All the while, lovers claim ‘I love you only, of course!’ When her spirit is sapped Picked dry and left to die Lovers will ne’er look back Nor do they hear her sigh A melting tear of crystal Lies now beside her cheek Would life have been so good If she were not so meek. |

 (tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Sharon, this is so very sad, my heart all goes to all these lost lovers in the world and I pray with all my heart that they will rise to the hope of a brand new day and have love touch their hearts once more to last forever! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!   May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

good final question, deVine one. As they say....if it is true the meek shall inherit the earth, who will stand up to claim it??  |

We are who we are - The meek are not the weak... Only less intrusive upon the world...This is beautifully said, deVine one..  |

This is a truly heartfelt poem. How many of us have given of ourselves too freely wanting only to be accepted and possibly loved in return? I wonder. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

ah. . . but what is meekness?? and is one person's meekness another person's boldness?? very thought-provoking here. . . I like it. . . ------------------------------------------------------ To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |
