Linda, I went to the memorial last Sunday morning on the way to church. It was early in the morning, so it was quiet. They were just setting up the crosses. Mary Lee, I have never heard of Cloud Atlas, but it sounds like one I might want to look for. And Tabatha, thanks so much for the website. Poetry really does help, and writing helps and I appreciate you leading me toward this website.

The ending speaks to this question. Maybe instead of just quoting it on GoodReads, I'll make it into a blog post.Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724394291330902141.post-24402769320779559012012-07-28T04:22:32.006-06:002012-07-28T04:22:32.006-06:00Thank you for this thoughtful post, Carol.

I was looking around and saw an interesting site called "One Year of Writing and Healing," which has a little list of "healing poems" I thought you might like to see: http://www.oneyearofwritingandhealing.com/one_year_writing_and_heal/healing-poetry.htmlTabathahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367572663591077922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7724394291330902141.post-22411528106907571292012-07-27T17:56:07.792-06:002012-07-27T17:56:07.792-06:00I've been off the internet for some funny reas...I've been off the internet for some funny reason, but back on now, so I missed today, but can read & enjoy everyone's posts. Thank you for this Carol. I visited the memorial today and stayed and stayed. Typical teacher in me looking ahead & I wonder what they'll do after a while, or what is possible? More information is being revealed about the young man, which saddens me even more. What a time. Best wishes to you.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
