Don't Lose Hope (poem) by George J. Carroll on AuthorsDen

Reviewed on November 10, 2012

What an encouraging, inspiring poem, George! It is destined to soothe and calm those(in Sandy's path)who read it.
A poem I wrote entitled "The Phoenix", has a similar message.
Continued success~

We are strong souls, and this is not
the first disaster to hit, it just hit
home this time and keeps us closer to
knowing and emphasizing more to others
who have suffered the same...

blessings and prayers to you and many
who have suffered these tragedies George

Love and Light

George,

Wonderful poem. What you say is true, 'things' can be rebuilt, but you cannot take away Spirit!

we will rebuild but it will be difficult if not impossible to replace many of the "historic" sites ...

I'm sure the spirit of America will also rally in these dire times to help each other in need - like how it was post-9/11. May gratitude for survival be the spur of those whose compassion leads them to care for those less fortunate. So pleased you are safe and well, and all those you love, too. Blessings do, indeed, need to be counted. xx

Yeah, rebuilding is something we do, that is a fact,George, but as you alluded to when you lose everything except your life it is difficult, actually it is impossible, to piece things back together as they were.
