Just one more thing
My sister of laughter
Remember that I loved you
While you were here

Just one more thing
My friend of thoughtful intellect
Remember that I loved you
While you were near

Just one more thing
My friend of a lifetime
Remember that I loved you
And still hold you dear

Just one more thing
Sweet child of the morning
Remember that I loved you
And still shed the tears

Just one more thing
Sweet man like my brother
Remember that I loved you
Your voice I still hear

Just one more thing
My soul sister of creation
Remember that I loved you
And no, I still don’t like beer

Just one more thing
My storytelling friend
Remember that I loved you
And that I shared your fear

Just one more thing
My little ray of sunshine
Remember that I loved you
Your image is still so clear

To the abundant universe
A question if you please
Why is cancer taking so many I love?
And why them all this year?

To those who have passed on
and to family and friends still here

(((((Mom))))) I love you ... I just need to find my feet again ...I feel a little adrift. Love and light surrounds you.

(((AG))) My dear friend who is a 2 time survivor already and lost all, was told they found another lump and to prepare herself, get her things in order..... she is awaiting results...I feel your pain

(((Ken))) Way too many of us feel this pain ... my heart goes out to you and your friend

I support few charities, usually kids and veterans, but for the last 2 years I have been generous to cancer research, for the very air we breath is being poisoned, and without a cure, we're all doomed

air, food, toxic environments .... sigh .....

My thoughts (I hope you will pardon my post within your thread)......

I sit in silent wonder, to put my thoughts to ink
For lost in my confusion, it always helps me think
A better understanding, is reason for my rhyme
And though I may learn nothing, it does help pass the time

I'm not the worlds richest man, but when I think a while
I'm surely not the poorest, for I can share a smile
And if I had the riches, that so many others crave
Like them, it would be hard to smile, just another slave

Me, I'd always share my wealth, with any man in need
Instead of living off his pain, to wallow in my greed
I'd rather have a simple life, make other people smile
Seek to clean the air we breathe, not worry what's in style

And what is with our government, always preaching fear?
Always raising taxes, and their spending every year
Why must there always be a need, to start another war?
Why can't we take those billions, and start to feed the poor?

Build houses for the homeless, and educate a child
Instead of killing thousands, and say it makes us proud
Wave a flag, we can't salute, then take away the Lord
From state, and church, and home and school, My God! They must be bored!

And how are we supposed to live, with prices on the rise?
Fire all those bureucrats, hire someone wise!
Someone who knows morals, and nobility of cause
Not some jerk who thinks himself, disasters Santa Clause!

Lets do away with money, and pay our way with deeds
Then see how life progresses, and who has special needs
Let's do away with food stamps, put pride into our farms
Start growing food for people, instead of building arms!

It's sad to think our soldiers die, for rights we can't employ
Like liberty and happiness, pursuits we can't enjoy
Our leaders take us deeper, and deeper into debt
And tell us to feel safer, with the little that we get

As usual, I'm still confused, yet put my thoughts to pen
I tell myself "I am but one, where can I begin?"
And now that I have written, I'll end it with this note
I may be poor, and only one, BUT I STILL HAVE A VOTE!

everything is packaged in plastics....scary thought when I think of cancer and plastics proliferating in the human landscape hand in hand...but I never hear of a link. I can't help being cynical about the causes. That's my thought and it gnaws at me. Just a gut feeling and I don't like it

(((Ken))) your thoughts are always welcome ... and I love the twists and turns a thread can take...

Woouldee - it always amazes me .... I used to live in an area of Alberta where there were a lot of gas wells. The area also had the highest concentration of non-Hodgkins Lymphoma per capita ... my cousin who was 19 at the time is a survivor. Curious no? Refuted by big oil companies of course ... we can't have anything cutting into profits ... but the concentration of cases is too startling to ignore so the Canadian Cancer Society was going to look into it ...

I wonder if we will ever get to a place where it is about people not profits...

Here we can now thank Mr Bush for taking away our 1st amendment rights with his "Patriot Act". Not about protecting borders, it's about controling the masses. If you speak out now against big business (his supporters) you can be labled a terrorist and your possessions siezed, jailed and forgoten. So much for having a voice.

That is ridiculous!!!
