I pray that a very good friend of mine would read and meditate on this. I pray so hard, with plenty of tears, Jay and I know without a doubt that one day my prayers will be heard...that he finally gets it! That he can "choose", that he is "free" and doesn't have to remain in the past. Awesome poem! Always, Annalies

Very inspiring, Jay. Also enjoyed the way you wrote "syn 'o man." Sort of a play on words. When we put cinnamon on things, they are covered with brown. This is a very clever metaphor to restore the white beauty of the pearl. Best wishes, Carolyn
