[hometext] => Friends, family, neighbors, those I speak with on the phone, no one is being by-passed. It seems all are being affected in some way with grief!
[bodytext] =>  "NO COMFORTER" Silent still, no longer alive, Robbed by uncertainties, unable to survive. Nothing living, feelings gone, no growing green. Hearts of petrified wood, sadly, many mean. Row after row, no comforter, Open country without a defender. Surrounded by weeds, roots sink deep. Immensely scarred hearts, no incentive, asleep. People are hurting, broken branches fall, Hearts wrenched, painful losses recall, A son gives his life on a distance shore..... Daughter's overdose, devastating family core. Long lasting relationships come to nil Heartless, no compassion or mercy are truly real! Pretenders devoid of conscience. Pray upon the lonely soul's temperance. Gore, atrocities, abhorrent acts. No peace and security, broken contracts Lover's of money, instead of lover's of life. Mankind beasts have become like wildlife! He will bring to ruin those ruining. Compassionate comfort for hearts aching. No more suffering, tears, nor outcry. No need for comforter, to death say "Goodbye!" Created by Cheri Cam LeBren June 6, 2004 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Self acceptance comes from meeting life's challenges vigorously. Don't numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory!" ~J. Donald Walters~ As I created this poem I couldn't help think of the scripture in Ecclesiastes 4:1:"And I myself returned that I might see all the acts of oppression that are being done under the sun and look! the tears of those being oppressed, but they had no comforter; and on the side of their oppressors there was power, so that they had no comforter." Even King Solomon could see it in his day!"

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
