Together We Stand

God bless the striking nurses, pilloried by some.' They and the postal people, are a gift to everyone The human touch, and prescence near in times Of victory doubt and fear, the stand in line so fine A rationale, to employ tells better times we can enjoy Stand with those who only care' we've seen very devil Bare' unity now the only way, ! with essential sevices We need every night and day..

Sad when nurses having to strike, indeed they should take care of them, this world is in a mess everywhere it seems, rejecting God gonna get worse sadly

Great times and people Inspire others, for they too Were once inspired. Uplifted By drive and desires worthless commoditys now Placed on a pyre! Life the Prize; Love the strengh strive To deliver length by lengths'

Angels all over the world they are, Joe, from the first time i opened my eyes after my first heart attack, in New Zealand i've have this memory of a nurse and her beautiful brown eyes, holding my hand, I swear, she was an Angel...Love the poem, and the message.

Very well said my dear friend Joe. Hope and pray that someday our government will realize how important people in the social services are especially health services like nurses, giving them the benefits they deserved. A stunning write my dear friend. I enjoyed. Thank you so much for sharing. God bless you always and your writings. Hugs

I echo Wendy's Bravo. Also, I Just listened to a video put out by a woman who knows of MANY terrible things happening this moment in history to take our rights from us. Really scary stuff. but you know already. Here's her website: www.wffa.win
