What dark feelings! The soul does not atrophy ... only the awareness of it. Buona domenica, caro Raffaele. Bravissimo poeta. Abbracci. Margherita  |

he took it down because he has this rediculous notion that he is hideously ugly and breaks computer screens. aww....poor computer. And on the subject of this poem...it is useless for me to say anything because you allready know that I lava it PURE CHEESE. smeared. What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall? |

Struggle between good, and evil, maybe? But this is a comment from the one that everyone wants to "SHUT UP!" So I will. I hope your struggle ends in your favor! Love, Terri~  |

(big hugggsssssss) I agree with Margherita here, the soul isn't solely responsible, it only preconceives and feels for this struggle and dictates all else! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Raphael, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

sigh. I'm having one of those slow days... I actually thought the first line said: "with prostate felled"  Good thing I read you twice, huh?  soul atrophy. Apparently that stuff has spread to me eyes.  |

Ahhh...Milton, best taken in small slices. Did you know that even Mrs. Milton thought he was tedious? *grin* (good stuff, Sir.) |

rofl w/Serenity.....LOL (psssttt... read it the same way and was wondering what everyone was talking about. I started to go back to read it again, then I got to Karen's reply! ahahahaha Then I went back and read it again. I will say that the other replies made more sense then, Raph. LOL) You always make me think, my friend... which is a good thing!! Hugs  Ethel |
