Shy Poet, how beautiful the gift that you possess! Reading this beautiful piece causes me to question what I've been doing that has kept me away from Authors Den so long! Never stop stirring up and pouring forth the gift.
very beautiful the poem and the thoughts that follow it is like reading an what-do-you-call-it book(LOL) you know you read a page each day mind gone for the moment but you should think about publishing one of those books there are people out there who needs thing like that, surely people in the churches,you know

"Flicker in brilliance, and ignite fires in poetic souls." For this is the purpose of poetry -- always to inspire. And this poem has inspired me. It has made me question the reasons behind verses. Why do we express them. Not enough that we do. If we have learned something through our journey as human beings and poets, then we must inspire.
Thank you for sharing this. Good to hear from you again.

Shy poet,
your potry is in a class of its own this is no exception...
Excellent poem.
"...it is incredible laughter that releases burdens that weigh
heavy on souls."
I love this line the best, in this piece, which is also one of
your best.
This thought has been my "words to live by"...that laughter is
the soothing balm for our injured souls.
Ireland 1945. Florence Kite finds a letter and her whole world crumbles. Marcus Fanning was her real father. But twenty-five years ago, Marcus Fanning vanished off the face of the earth.
Her grandma always said she had “the blessing”, and to always use it for good, but sometimes there is shame in fame if a person can’t handle it. Don’t let the Boo Hag ride ya
God bless you.
