Thanks for sharing how it touched you. Hi Cecilia,

It wove the mundane with the spiritual, the concrete with the ephemeral. Like a DNA strand, it wove together the realm of human experience. Like a guiding light, it took us by the hand toward the promise fulfilled and the promise yet to be met. This poem was one of the highlights of the inauguration. I am thankful for it.

I like it very much. In you I discover yet another children's book author and poet. Have you read any of Sri Chinmoy's poetry? His body of work is quite vast, uplifting and almost exclusively devotional/prayerful in nature. http://www.srichinmoypoetry.com/ Thank you for sharing it Carole. I like it very much.

I see that your children's books are in our library network and I will delight in taking a look at them. And I remain a fan of Alexander's poem regardless of any nay-sayers. Wishing you a beautiful and fruitful New Year! Dear Crescent,
