Can We

(07/09/11) Can we write of centuries past of things That we do not know, and can we recall Things we read which puts our hearts aglow. Can we feel Romeos words as he called to Juliet. And can we feel Juliet s heart as she looked down From her balcony. when she felt her heart bursting Wanting to be free. Can we see Sampson and Delilah as She cut off his hair. Did she do it out of spite Or did she really care. Can we see Helen of troy s reaction When they climbed out of the wooden horse Did she truly love him, and did she feel remorse. Can we feel MARY S pain as she had To give up her begotten son And did others feel the pain Or was she the only one. Can we imagine being nailed to that cross. And the clothes that the soldiers did not keep to the ground it would be tossed. Can we imagine if we did not have Hope, love, and faith This is something I care not to contemplate. Can we live without love-how would we survive “CAN WE” ??????
