Great to see you back, Sue.

A very strong and positive statement of your inner strength which you imply will carry you through adversity. I'm SURE it will.

Love, Ray xx

It's all anyone can ask to be a strong and able person. We need that to keep going. I thought this was a wonderful poem. It showed a zest for life.

well done! its interesting to note, as i try to imagine a woman giving out a battle cry, seems foreign to me

(I hope you don't deem that comment as sexist ... it was not intended that way ... lol)

your poem tells us that you fully expect to die at some point, but yet you seem happy with the lot given you

nicely worded

Hey Sue - A great poem about resolve and determination. I truly enjoyed it.

I hope you are doing well these days. I posted that story that uses your name several months ago. It is called "The Machinist and the Sixteezkids".

I hope you enjoy this silly story.

I have missed you around here and this piece sounds like you've been given some bad news about your health perhaps. If I understood this correctly, I am so sorry. This piece is wonderful in depth of spirit and determination and it's so good to read you again. Take care Sue. Jude

Very very well done.

SO good to hear from you again, Sue, and with such a powerful piece that makes me wonder if it wasn't a bout of the melancholies that had you away for so long...that's usually what's gotten hold of me when I fall silent for a bit, and I do LOVE this call to rally the troops. :)

I love this little poem. The will to keep going is sometimes the hardest thing, but this shows how it can be done. Great work.
