Crown of Word Thorns


Your tenebrous soul, masquerading as love, haunts these comments all.

Oh, Lord save my soul, that my eyes, on your words, do not befall!

Hi, Gershon! Wonderful to see you! Sometimes, in fact, most of the times, a title hits me first before the content of the poem at all.)) I take all comments as " visiting angels." meaning, far from lightly. A person like you and others who comment...really plant roses in my heart, did you know that? Making a difference in someone's life is far from an insignificant act. It is like a mitzvot! Not sure I am spelling that right.. Love, Panagiota
