I enjoyed your site. I live in Utah and to make a long story short here I go.
On November 7th this year my 17 year old niece Bethany and her 20 year
old sister Megann and boyfriend were sitting at a light 2 blocks away
from home 2 a.m.after a family party when a car pulled up and fired 6
shots into their car. Bethany was in the back seat leaning forward
talking to Megann when it happened. Bethany was hit by one bullet out of
6. She died in Megann's arms in less than 10 minutes. The shooting was
labled as a case of mistaken identity and no one has been charged. My 9
year old son Remington was very close to her. His class got together and
made cards for him and he gave them to his Aunt Merlinda. Inclosed in
one of the cards was a poem a little girl wrote (Geraldine Archie) and
Megann was so touched by it that she read it at the funeral. I thought
maybe you might like it.

It breaks
my heart to lose you
But
you didn't go alone.
A part
of me went with you
The
night God took you home.
A million
times I've missed you
A
million times I've cried.
If
my love could of saved you
You
never would of died.
Now
to your grave I travel
The
roses placed with care.
No
on understands my heartache
As
I turn and leave you there.
If
tears could build a stairway
And
heartaches could build a lane.
I'd
walk the path to heaven
And
bring you back again.
Thank
you... Carol Clark

IN A PAST
As
I look upon my past deed I find remorse and forgetfulness
I find
a profusion of sensations and feelings captured
In
a past which I can not recover, but only remember
My
eyes brimming with tears can only see the false doings of myself
But
my heart can look upon the truth
Alone,
I am one, oblivious to the truth
I am
able to see only objects of reality
But
of objects of passion and desire, I am blinded.
Thank
you ,,,,, From Michael Joerger Send comments to:

"Fog"
Nightmares
lie on reality's brink.
Real
or not? Or a real dream.
So
get on your knees and take a drink,
From
our ever ebbing, flowing stream.
Limb
from limb,
Tree
to tree,
My
dreams stem
From
your decree.
Pitch
black night,
Dreamless
day,
Pure
delight,
Here
as you lay.
When
ravens weep
Upon
your door,
And
your mind creeps
Through
ancient lore.
When
night falls,
And
darkness shrouds,
And
the Sandman calls
From
amongst the clouds.
When
these things are come and then are gone,
Then
hurry, hurry to the streams,
For
all too soon comes the dawn,
But,
please, do not drown in your dreams.
If you
died there as you lie,
You
would not see the next day come,
You
could not see the morrow's sky;
You
end your life before its sum.

I wrote this poem
for my cousin, Derrek, after he was hit by a truck and
killed while getting
off the school bus this past May. He was only 11
years old.
Don't
cry for me, for I am here.
Never
stop reaching for me, I'll always be near.
I am
every star in the night's skies
that
seem to shine in daddy's eyes.
I am
the comfort of a spring shower.
I am
in the bright colors in a newly bloomed flower.
Don't
cry for me, I'll never go.
I am
the happiness brought in a summer rainbow.
Through
the leaves I am the fluttering sunlight.
I am
the never-ending flame, forever burning bright.
I am
the angel now who watches over you.
Guide
and protect, that is what I do.
Please
don't be crying still.
I needed
your stregnth then, and I always will!

As we
stand
Hand
in hand
We
have been together for many years
We
walk as one hand in hand
There
is no job to big
And
no challenge to small
Because
we are as one
We
have cried together, laughed together and shared joys and sorrows together
Because
we are as one
The
years we share and the years we will share
Are
but a moment in time
For
true love has no end
Because
we are as one
The
roads were tough at times
And
at times there was no easy end in sight
But
we made it through those hard times
Because
we are as one
The
things we have accomplished
And
the love we have built
Was
a much easier task
Because
we are as one
There
will be many years to come
For
us to share and love one another
And
they will be filled with great love and friendship
Because
we are as one
So
you see what I am saying to you when I look into your eyes
Our
lives were joined together and our hearts were made into one
Because
we are as one
If
I didn't have you at my side
I would
never again be able to say
We
are as one
So
as long as you are at my side
I can
say to you my darling
WE
STAND TOGETHER
HAND
IN HAND
Because
we are as one
