' ... remember/what others lost: ....'

Poem Artwork


' Moments of Silence '

... disaster and prayer
unite together
once more in cries of

'Enough.'  The names are
different for each,
but the pain's the same:

moments of silence
bring us to our knees;
in the midst of our

sorrow, remember
what others lost: may
we never forget.

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (8/14, revised 9/8)

That picture is absolutely breath-taking, and complemented by your sad but lovely poem, you've given us visual and word images that has a lingering quality.

Amen to THAT, Karla! There is something in us (some call it empathy - some call it God) which makes us stand tall together when disaster strikes - and we have long memories. Write on!

How true, Karla...we must always remember and we must remember that no one leaves this place without impacting the rest of us. This poem smacks of reality and reminds of the importantence of honoring the lives, loss of lives and sorrows of others.
Take care,
Sherry

Still moving boxes and getting settled here in Florida. While Unpacking some more today, I came upon a small metal souvenier of the Twin Towers my daughter brought back from New York. Memories seem to come like a chorus of angels that were born that day.

Love,
Susan
