		<description>Wonderful post..so powerful &amp; poignant...a poem that tells a sad but meaningful story.  I know this will mean so much to many readers &amp; will touch &amp; help heal them in the most painful areas of their lives.  This illustrates the essence of what this blog is all about.   Keep up the good work!</description>
