Gardens of Stone - Original by Mark Maysey

[powmiadaughter1965]

As I sit hear and tears fill my eyes, I want to thank you,

My dad did not make it home he's still an MiA And athe pain and hurt of missing him never goes away. This Halloween marks 46 years the day he was captured. I was 11 and now that I have out lived him in both years and date . I still want to know his exact fate . I have placed a memorial stone for him in Arlington to try and find some peace. But knowing he does not rest there doesnt ease the pain.

[TheOriginalPoet]

my sincerest condolences for the loss of your father and I sincerely hope you have found some sort of peace in it all. I lost my mother back in the year 2000 to a brutal murder and I don't ever think I will get over it, all we can do is try to live in peace as much as possible. thank you for stopping by and feel free to visit my other channel "Maysey1". Wishing you a peaceful and pleasant holiday season. Mark

I love how you talk this:and then it builds up into a crescendo of raw emotion through the power of the words and one can feel it in your voice.

Loved the playing just after 3.22 which takes you to the next verse.

Sad how those who do not know:are blinded by the septic words told them:and their memories and thoughts are set in Gardens of Stone:impenetrable to those who do not understand.

Sabaii and thanks for a very powerful rendition of this poem.It's super.

[TheOriginalPoet]

spot on words here mate, you always know how to deliver the truth of the matter, I'm glad I stopped by and found your comment here, it makes me feel much better about posting this again. Sabaii and thank you for your honest and insightful replies. Mark

[coomadoug]

I dont know how you share things now...Its got me beat

Hope you are well and the poetry flows from a soul in peace

[TheOriginalPoet]

Hiya mate, I don't bother with the share thing anymore, this is just a place to share songs with old friends like you and others, and a place to reflect where my travels have taken me. I've been busy building a shop to build ukulele's, I should be starting my first one soon as the building is almost done. I've posted an album of pictures on my facebook and will eventually share progress on here as well. It's good hearing from you and hope all is peaceful and well with you.

[coomadoug]
