What a time of trials we live in. Yet we who know God's word know that these things will come. A beautiful tribute. I hope all is well with you.

    Hi Jean...-smile-...Yes. that we do....doesn't, wont make it any easier to pass through. Funny...how so many say they dont believe...yet our enemy was born and forewarned by Bible. I'm fine considering...thank you. love Michael

Hi, reconciled,
This exceptional poem, "Parisien", pulls at our heartstrings as it paints the atrocities of the attack on Paris by forces of Isel in brilliant but somber hues and celebrates the resilience of it citizens in surviving a the second attack with heads bloody but unbowed as it vows to defend itself and its freedom. The figurative language is "awesome" ; the metaphors fresh and apt.
Your friend and Colleague,
Preston

Your poem says it all. The world is still in shock that such a horrible tragedy could happen. No one is safe around the world with people believing they have the say over life and death.
You say your Faith was tested in Texas. Was that at M.D. Anderson? There my husband and my Faith was tested, but he is now cured of stage four lymphoma. Praise the Lord.
Your poem is well done. Thanks for sharing.

    No Maam....but I've heard they are blessed "the Best" care for cancer victims....I am so glad to hear of your miracle...and thank God for it..-smile-. No...my faith was and is still being tested by a principal, an order of things validated or denied and a faith that His timing is more perfect....-smile- ah its as long and as personal as yours...this sojourn of soul redemption. Big love to you Maam....Michael

HI Michael, when I heard it reminded me of 911...useless killing of innocent people...what runs through a persons head that they would blow themselves away to kill another...pure hate...what an awful day to wake up to... you can feel the pain in your words...so very sad baby...so very well expressed...and the perfect video...Love you...Linda xxoo

    these are "strangers"...people who've done no harm to their murders...motive lacking reason, other than to instill fear by demonstrating a callous disdain for human life...including their own. You can breed people to believe...history shows us that. love Michael

Good poem. I really enjoyed it. you convey the pain and heartache that is being felt in France. It flowed well and had a proper tone. Well done.

Michael: good morning, young man! This is a magnificent tribute to a small country being terrorized. Why is it that countries so big as ours, can't put a stop to terrorists? The 'good guys' need to gather and end this nonsense. A little bombing here and there doesn't seem to effect those people. I vote for one big swoop and clean them out . . . I know we have a couple nukes left . . . Thunder this morn.

    Because our governments allow them to live next door, imposing upon us pressure to acceptance neighbors who hate us. The elite profit from fear and war creating continuous the next encore. love you Thunder....michael
