all too human...on a day of remembrance

all too human...
on a day of remembrance

all too human...

you...fragile in your strength
broken in your integrity
taken too soon by indifference and hate
I am so sorry for not changing sooner

all too human...

me...foolish in my pride
convinced in my argument
failing to remember the servant who
himself was forgiven
as if you even needed forgiveness

all too human...

love and pain mingle together
loss and renewal as we remember
saddened yet not without hope
as heart by heart
choose to accept and embrace change

all too human...

weeping lasts the night
but joy comes in the morning
which morning, dear god?
will it be tomorrow?

all too human...

Dear 'Drea

While there is life there is hope.

OMG!!! Drea

[email protected] Yeah, You severely broke my heart with this one. And I Love you for it!

Nobody else can touch me as deeply as You do. Okay, there's my Bailey; He does that everyday.(wink&grin)

But seriously, You touch my heart in ways that so few others can.

Thanks Lots,
Huge Hugs,
So Much Love,

in every piece you write, i feel the pain you feel, I wish i could give you a hug, and tell you everything will be all right. But there is often a glimmer of hope and faith in your work as well, so i know you will hold on as long as you must.

Andrea, this was so

Andrea, this was so wonderful and special. I am always so amazed at all the very special poetry and stories you generously offer to us almost everyday. Your talent is most appreciated by one and all. Thank you so much.
With lots of hugs, Jan

I don't know what prompted this but...

...I wish I could affect someone's life enough to be remembered with such affection.

Keep your bows into the wind; however long the storm lasts, it will end soonest if you face the maelstrom. And don't lose the brokenness; while you can hurt, cry, feel you remain human and it's better to be all to human.

Hugs and prayers,
