Ciao,

Thank you, my friend, for appreciating my poetry.

There's nothing more beautiful out of life, in life than love and faith. That includes love & faith of and by humans, most important, of God. Everyone needs love and faith of fellow beings & vice versa. More so,love and faith of God or an ideal.

Regards to you & family!

You have a musical quality about your poetry. I am curious, it almost seems that you are seeking something beautiful out of life by what you write. Do you have anything specific in mind?

Thanks for sharing!

Pinksteeler,

Thank you for reading my piece and commenting. You're right, words are medicine for the soul. Kind words, words of love and encouragement, words of support and faith, etc.. Preachers, teachers, counselors, doctors, lovers and faith healers, etc. use them ( words ).

I believe that words can do miracles and the poet, to me, is a wordsmith- the pen is mightier than the sword.

Thank you again!

Rouchelle,

Thanks a lot for reading my poem & finding time to comment.

I hate to be preachy in my poetry but here I go:

1. I dedicated this poem to the 32 victims of Virginia Tech Massacre and their grieving families.

2. And VT Poet who tried to comfort & to boost the morale the VT family. It helped.

3. VT Adm. & Faculty, VT School Police failed to protect the victims.

Best regards and thank you!

I second williampinn's 'motion'-- but was there a message which, like so often here, we failed to hear?

Great rendering in words; i'm 'listening'-- (Memorial Day, 2007)
