Posted by Lori Blair on 12/26/11 at 04:35 AM Reality is sad, and so unfair to us, perhaps one day we will understand it better. Knowledge is what we lack but there is much wisdom within us all to grasp. Heartfelt especially considering such troubling times..Thank you! |
Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 12/26/11 at 05:06 PM That last stanza is very thought provoking, as is the thought of life being a race. Serious stuff, George. Thank you. |
Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 01/23/12 at 06:39 PM a wonderful work, my friend. I think everything animate or inanimate has been blessed or infected with a duality of nature., and war is no different. Such things as War or Peace or Indifference cannot claim utter victory for themselves and as such, such spoils are always tainted with a sense of loss, of a kind that disturbs the soul and conscience. |
