A Poet's Prayer

A Poet's Prayer God grant all poets the courage: To grant each other the absolute right to total freedom of thought. To not run and hide from each other, if by association we will in fear, be ignored or caught. To have a spine and stand up with other poets for what is right. To have full integrity, when our heads hit our soft pillows tonight. Amen

Amen, Brother James! I promise to keep writing the truth as I see it and refusing to be a sell-out nor a people pleaser! I am sure many feel the same. Blessings and serenity be yours.. Love, Panagiota.

So lucky we are to have that freedom of thought in the western world and able to put it on paper without worry of persecution. Tom

Amen, Panagiota, we poets have been given a gift and we must have the courage to use our gift of words in the right way, for words are powerful and can be both beautiful and evil....

Dear Heart. Yes and powerful for the good of man. Too much evil press out there. Seriously, life is not ugly. One event does not define all the world going to hell! Ugh, so fed up with trash talking About humanity Panagiota Bless the world!
