Just as a man Of joy and laughter not filled within Speak not of the pain and destruction you felt Held it in all these years...why, we could have helped Up, we could have held you...but you never spoke of it, for this was unknown All of it...all of it...none it known. ©Holly P. Moore October 2012

Holly, this is good for you to keep writing it out of yourself. My friend Floria did the same thing when her son died young. And in the process, she discovered she was a poet and began writing other things as well. I cannot seem to locate that poem "the three of us" or something like that. I looked and didn't see it. Maybe I just passed it by? WEll, I will see you later. Luv, Andrea
