Karla, in your eloquence, you speak for many of us--and
perhaps some day for all of us. Many years ago, a young

As long as men of greed, their souls void of human compassion tread upon earth, it will continue. As for natural disasters, no one is exempt. Karla, your passion for life and the living burn brightly in your poem. May peace joy and love be always with you my dear friend. Jon Michael

perhaps some day for all of us. Many years ago, a young
girl wrote (in the Chicago Tribune, I think) that one
day there will be a war and nobody will go. Bless you.
