Thank you for the feedback. There is alot of emotion tied up in that poem. For me, it is a poem of hope as I am still with the one I wrote it for. I don't think she cried when she got it but I sure did when I wrote it.

Stile,<P>Funny how that works - we can unleash so much emotion when we allow ourselves the freedom to write what we feel. If your wife didn't shed a few tears when she read of your failures and hopes for a better future she missed a great wet-eyed, ten-tissue moment. Great words Stile!
