dear Curt... Hearts and souls are pure as
Silver raindrops cover our world... we are one
as we walk in the sunshine of love... the precious embrace of a child who knows no boundaries... between heaven and earth. truly, Pat
"Violet- red mixed with blue.
Red as in blood;
blue as pain, suffering;
this also surrounds me.
But Death
can see only one shade,
the deepest,
darkest,
black."
My, my, I love reading the depths to this, Curt..."the deepest, darkest black." Gave me chills and then some. You really are an extraordinary poet. I hope you know that!

Kelly, you are way to kind, but I appreciate your comment, thank you very much...
well ... the turn caught me completely off guard .. poem and video perfectly balanced until politics expressed itself ;) no one can argue against the validity of suffering in our lives ..but illegal also has a definition .. we seem to loose site of that in the heat of discussion ... many families are torn apart in America without breaking our laws being a jumping off place .. i do pray that our Congress will come up with a clear cut plan that is compassionate as well as just under the law ... applied only to personal loss your words moved me deeply .. and the comfort that is in between the tragedy gives me hope .. listening to the music adds to making this poem memorable .. thanks for sharing redzone .. we have a long way to go don't we :(

"I gather no inspiration in the wild violet of loss" ... that kind of carries the whole poem for me.
Superb line on a keen sense of shock and doldrums.
