For Cat
Abundant grace
Transfused with love and kindness
You offer to all
Hold high the weapon of right
Smite what is wrong.
A tender shield held in defence against hate
Stand in defiance
Kick malevolence
into oblivion
Talent and artistry
Remain
Last few words:
The Doom sisters rock !!!!
Love you lou

I can only see the good that
I can only see the good that has come from this madness. I know that when the hurt hurts it hurts like hell and it feels as though it will never pass, but with all the folks who have cared enough to comment, friends and friends' poems such as this eloquent and elegant poem Lou wrote for you, it's proof positive that unkindness and desperate lies to gain a foothold will never ever *win*, not for long anyway except for the shock of it happening..
Love will triumph!

Dear (((Lou)))
I came here it catch up on your writing to see and comment on all I have missed. And I find this gem of love and understanding! What a pleasant and wonderful surprise!!! Thank you!!!
All I can say, in my defence for not getting here sooner, is; I have been busy with getting the Book of Styx and Book of Styx II ready for publication. And of course AEC business. So forgive me for not being here sooner, please? I love and appreciate every word that you have so carefully and lovingly crafted. Big (((Hugs)))
Love, Cat
