Dear Ernestine, you have shown so much wisdom in this.We must not walk around blind of our own choice.Thankyou for this one.Love Duncan

I think there is nothing that I can say that has'nt been, except that within this beautiful poem, your warmth and love for others just shines through with every line, well done Ernistine.Your friend Graham.

Ernestine-this is a wonderful poem. Very well crafted plus-TRUE. In twelve step groups you see the sad new people blossom in the presence of love and care (including their own new found care of themselves) . Thanks for sharing this-and happy cheer for the 'class' of 1943 Blessings from Ray

Beautiful poem, both in content & form. A good example of how art may lead us in subtle ways, through beauty & delight, to notice, observe, realize aspects of life which we sometimes do not see. The suffering of others, the sad gaps in other people's hearts reflected on their faces, posture, stance, the look in their eyes. This is a poem of compassion, of agape-brotherly love-& the realization of those things which unite us all-our human condition, all beautifully expressed in rhymed quatrains. The regularity of stanzas, the ABAB rhyme schemes, help to emphasize the regularity of suffering in the human world, & touch our hearts with their soft, empathetic rhythms & textures. Thank you for sharing your beautiful poetry, infused with beautiful feelings.

This is so lovely. A ten from me. I found your name on a mans page that has become very popular here in Vatican City. Ernestine, I'm so happy I did, for I shall continue to read more. God Bless Anabelle
