Passions’ Proud Poets One wrote of how his Lady cried, one soon wrote her troubled cry one wrote of her need for blue then one penned of some things to do Soon one found her voice again then she wrote of where, and when he wrote, wending his thoughts along soon he lifted their hearts in song She wrote of anger, and of tears’ sum, they held to faith, told fear, “begone!” one wrote of red, come white, come blue, all penning hope, as only they do As dust settled, and all saw more quietly, silently, they’ll even the score by lifting hearts, souls, and awesome pride matched only by an ocean’s tide… So if a poet, in days to come hears his pounding heart’s patriotic hum then casts a memory of Passion’s hue look around…and see, it’s you… For all picked up their pen to write their stance so tall, in their unite ~*~ You all continue to make me proud that you allow me within your ranks [This message has been edited by Sunshine (09-11-2002 02:00 PM).] |

Dear Sunshine I think today is a day for uniting, if there ever was one. May we all do justice to the memories of the lost. gb |

It has been a very emotional week for all of us...in oh so many ways. Life has pulled us along in its riptide ways, we tried to look back, but our footsteps strayed...whirlwinds of time now blow us to blue...all I can pray, is that the hearts of you, take it to the next step, be ALL that you can be...and with your words, and with your hearts, you change a course, with poetry... thank you all so much for reading. |
