The News is reported ... a loss ... and a plea is heard...


Grant not power to these demons of dark
Hush hush their haunts erase their mark
Be free of judgments and reprisals cruel
Truth and Spirit of Self in light anew to rule
Addict me not to a false quieting of the pain I feel
Make the liberation from a shadowed self a beauty real
Mask not these agonies of the abiding soul
No longer allow deception to demand a toll
Pay not the price of life relegated to sorrow
Live the promise held within each tomorrow
Depression be not a donned cloak of despair
Hold the Faith yet borne of God's loving care
The gift of life and power of will in your story be  told
Hail each breath,  the cleansing, 'tis the alchemist's gold.

Rose Marie Raccioppi

And so let us all be open to hear the "words and ideas" 
that we are yet to reveal to ourselves for the deepest of liberation. 


His life in GLORY shared
In his way of splendor was his care
Selfless giving and loving PRAISE
This be the gift of his knowing ways

A smile remains in heart
From his memory I shall not depart.

PEACE dear Robin.
