REading idea...what do you think? (No reply on BHB)

Love is a good above all others. Love alone makes every burden light. Love is watchful, and while sleeping still keeps watch; though fatigued is not weary; though pressed is not forced. Love is sincere, gentle, strong, patient, faithful, prudent, and longsuffering. Love is circumspect, humble, upright; not weary, not fickle, not intent on selfish things. Love is steadfast and quiet. The wise lover values not so much the gifts of the lover as the love of the giver.

~Thomas A. Kempis

I think that each of us reacts to poems and other readings differently. Some things strike a chord for us, remind us of our loved ones, and if that's the case for you, it doesn't matter what anyone here thinks.

Having said that, I LOVE this piece.
