      Evening guy's and gal's and ladyboy's, not a very manly thread I know, but I was wondering if you had a poem that really means something to you. For me it's Footprints in the sand, I'm not what you would call religous or anything I just like the whole idea of having someone help you along when times are a bit tough, For me it was my Dad who carried me when I was falling in my younger day's and fall a lot I did, but he was always there no matter what to give me an earned earful, a place to stay and always some good advice. If not for him I would not be who I am now, I miss him alot, and this poem reminds me of him.

      That is a lovely poem. Personally I'm not keen on the religious side though.

      I like Rudyard Kipling - If.

      yeah I'm not what you would call a good catholic like , I no longer go church and stuff or say prayers, The poem just reminds me of my Dad is all, he was my rock and my best friend.

      There once was a man called Dave,
      Who dug up a prostitutes grave,
      She was mouldy as sh1t,
      And missing a t!t,
      But look at the money he saved!

      It's a really nice poem mate. Nice sentiment and words. I also like The Soldier - Rupert Brooke.

      Do you have a favourite poem.

      Cardinal Newman's 'The Pillar of the Cloud'

      Lead, Kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom,
      Lead Thou me on!
      The night is dark, and I am far from home—
      Lead Thou me on!
      Keep Thou my feet: I do not ask to see
      The distant scene,—one step enough for me.

      I was not ever thus, nor pray'd that Thou
      Shouldst lead me on.
      I loved to choose and see my path; but now
      Lead Thou me on!
      I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,
      Pride ruled my will: remember not past years.

      So long Thy power hath blest me, sure it still
      Will lead me on,
      O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
      The night is gone;
      And with the morn those angel faces smile
      Which I have loved long since, and lost awhile.

      Do you have a favourite poem.

      William Blake -

      To see a world in a grain of sand,
      And a heaven in a wild flower,
      Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
      And eternity in an hour.

      A robin redbreast in a cage
      Puts all heaven in a rage

      Always been a fan of this, and Blake in general.

      Brought a tear to my eye. So heartfelt and gentle.
