I understand your poem perfectly. Half of what I write have nothing to do with me or my personality.

We all need to think positively once in a while. What we really need is some inspiration, some uplifting vision. Keep focused, keep striving for something better. Nice sentiment.

Hey big sis, this sounds familiar to me. If only all people who are in danger had someone to tell them that they're loved and that someone really cares and is willing to help them, this world would be much better. However, I think only animals understand their persons' sorrows, and do not judge. Good read! Love ya, Little sis

Great analogy. I never thought about it that way. But it's true. We do write for others. Although I hesitate to do so because I don't want people to think I'm talking about myself. Maybe I should just quit worring about others. But on the other hand I don't want to make people think I'm in an unhappy relationship or something like that. It's a tough call to paint yourself w/ the problems of others. So I do commend you for that.

I second what Marylin Wilkerson said. I too have the pen and pad at bedside which is where I get most of my ideas at 3:00 a.m .
Wonderful poem Betty, and thanks for your welcome and comments. Truly appreciated.

Excellent. As one who is "gifted" with getting ideas in the middle of the night about topics on which to write, or even entire stories or poems, I keep a pad and pencil by the bed. Even I often question why I feel a need to write about something I haven't really experienced, but have seen. As a usual "Ms. Merry Sunshine," if I dare write something with just a bit of gloom, my friends are certainly concerned for my well being.
