Low Comments

what comes to mind reading this one, smoky, is the meaning from hebrew of adam. the three consonants that form it are the same that form the name edom, the nickname of jacob's brother and the country the sprang from him. edom means red. adam, for all humankind, translates as red-earth person or people. -glen

The confirmation of self, of life to which we are so blessed and lucky to have can be measured in that handful of dirt to which you speak. Great poem Smoky. You are always a great read.

From this earth come we all, and unto it shall return, so where is everyone? How low must we go? Earth is home....fine
