That is kind of a sad statement. It means you don't let poeple get close or no one has even tried. Either way I guess it works.

I never thought of it that way. However, I am, by nature, a very private person. Thanks for a good review.

Oh Al, this is joyous and sad at the same time. It's absolutely perfect. You said so much in six grand words that tell us who you are and how you've lived your life. Excellent

Thank you. I thought perhaps you would understand what I was trying to say---a very Anglican/Episcopal point of view.

I didn't notice this contest! I think I'll join, but, I will have a hard time beating this one. Your rhetorical question is very profound, and ends like a hiaku. good write. tony

I suppose you can take the haiku out of me, but not me out of the haiku! How's that for an enigma? Thanks for a great review. I hope you do join it--it's much harder than it looks, but very rewarding.

How are you feeling today? you sound in a very good mood. tony

reply by the author on 14-Apr-2008

Yes, today is one of my good days. I had breakfast with my major patron, and I am having dinner with my editor.

reply by tony bronk on 14-Apr-2008

I'm glad to hear it. good luck with your editor. tony

Wow, a six word story...this is the first I've read and it is quite impressive, Alvin! The title is apt and the dedication message also speaks volumes.

Not much to critique here....and nothing to add or subtract. It just is what it is and Only God Knew Him

Warm regards,
rama devi

Yes, it does rather have a universal meaning--as you all say in India, God is ONE.
