Essence of Humanity

Thoughts and prayers of man kind Rise above us all Drifting through eternity fearless of the fall Our lives we enter each one unique Like pebbles on a beach So many thoughts and words composed So many left un preached I like to think they gather there Somewhere beyond the stars Someone opens each and every one and places them in jars The inscription on the jars is simply stated there Here is the essence of mankind Feel free to use and share...

Great truth in this and I love this one also, Shar. I too believe that words never die ..each word that is uttered lives forever somewhere in the universe..just waiting for accountability. I wrote a poem way back when relative to that. Love, Annalise

smile -- your beauty, soars amid this melting into your lights loveliness moment in times poe, my dear -- again, i find sooo much softness dripping from the sweetened tip of, your treasures brush -- the glow is bright which rises high into the sky from upon, this beautiful canvas -- another fave yet colouring your splendorous self, but a masterpiece within both, "Heart and Soul" -- love, christopher ~
