this was so poignant and beautiful. I was wondering if it was yours. I was thinking either this one or the ANGEL poem had to be yours. I want you to know why it did not get a higher place. I just wanted all the top winners to show a one-word title. It's a thing I am picky about when it comes to acrostics. I really loved this one. Congrats in my contest.
