SUSTENANCE

what pure and generous hearts
I have met on the way.
what kindness and compassion
have struck my soul
to the near ecstasy of being.
what tears I have shed for already
missing you.
I wrap myself in the warmth of
your thoughts and the music of your
words that soothe and sustain.

I see you are holding on this is tres bien mon ami
your gratitude is obvious but the sadness is what is prevalent

all shadows of emotion
your words leave
the readers mouth agape
wow what did Joe
just say!!!
a layer of sadness
en-clothed in spiritual sorrow
appear it may....

Joe is very ill and thanks you all very much. Hopefully ,he will be able to answer all comments himself. Give him time. We are all concerned, but knowing Joe, he will soon be back .

Richards
for befriending him so much
may he get better soon
wish him well in his ear
at times we are far
but feel we are near
