There need to be people
toiling on this Earth
for whom money
is not the Bottom Line
those who see
beyond the moment
the temporal frame of inhuman
nature
to lead with voice of spirit
and marked uncommon sense.

Very insightful and unique. Nicely done. Best regards-Mike Gale.
At times we are a voice in the darkness...and at times just a voice in our head. Nice to see someone extolling the value of both.
remarkable and praiseworthy piece...this is excellent!
A witty rendition set aside for sober reflection. A work of an intricate mind elegantly penned with spiritual insight.
Laurence, very wise words! If only the poet's priority was more common... Brian
