Drumbeats cry outloud A wailing Nation's heartbeat Some souls flew away |

Dixie, thank you, for that thoughtful reply. A Nation is hurting, and we can only open our hearts, offer silent healing thoughts. |

Thanking each of you for spending a moment here.  majnu! hope you come back to read this one again. Where the heck have you been? India? Thank you very much for that generous reply. I cannot hold a candle to what Berkeley must offer in the way of social enlightenment, but am honored by your words. Majnu, you have been missed, my friend. |

Very good lament, Kacy I often repeat, we are all one people. My heart also wails, Over the drumbeats meaning; What child will be next To wear the deathshirt With a foul pill lodged in its heart? Death in ruined heaps Lay, the slayer and the slain; Mock of Columbine? To make others weep, was why? Blood stains on a trail of tears. ___________ice/ford ><> |

Some flew away... Someone said "Stirring". Yes, especially with the current events, I find this very stirring. sadie |

Well expressed. I could say more, but I can't talk right now-too well done. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
