M. L. Kiser Date: 10/12/2018 10:44:00 AM This is so true; if you don't or can't love yourself then, you can't expect anyone else to; still many do. There's a huge difference between ego and loving self. Well penned, my fine-penning friend. Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 10/12/2018 2:56:00 PM Thank you M.L. I have learned to tamp down my ego completely, pretending I do not have one, as it never serves me well.

Rhona Mcferran Date: 10/12/2018 10:27:00 AM Lovely poem, my friend... the part "Nourishes our/ Humanly/ Angels" reminds me of the phrase "the angel of our better nature", and I dearly love the idea of this!
