I thought it was wonderful.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure how much help I could be with a codependent viewpoint poetry book, but feel free to use anything on my blog you think would be useful.danwheelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08188460511623930603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337840823004696851.post-72940563818519352242008-06-28T22:31:00.000-07:002008-06-28T22:31:00.000-07:00A Hidden Wedge<BR/><BR/>A faller's wedge placed in a tree <BR/>Remained where it ought not to be. <BR/>The branches grew and swelled around. <BR/>And then one night without a sound- <BR/>An ice storm weighed the burdened trunk. <BR/>And down the branches went- kerplunk. <BR/><BR/>Some feelings hurt and trouble so. <BR/>But, to others they do not know. <BR/>It festers much and builds inside, <BR/>Though how hard one might try to hide. <BR/>Till one day it resurfaces. <BR/>And lays more blame with purposes. <BR/><BR/>A hidden wedge placed long ago. <BR/>Has pierced my heart and now does grow. <BR/>Where it can canker easily. <BR/>Imagined hurts and jealousy <BR/>Must be resolved, and then destroyed, <BR/>For life was meant to be enjoyed. <BR/><BR/>A burden shared is always best. <BR/>When we solve hurts, lay them to rest, <BR/>The enemy becomes a friend. <BR/>When we forgive there is an end. <BR/>We close the gap, we sort it out. <BR/>That's what life is truly about! <BR/><BR/>- Thomas S. Monson <BR/><BR/>4–9, Jul 2007, Thomas S. Monson, <BR/>“The Peril of Hidden Wedges, ” Ensign<BR/><BR/>Dear DanWheel, <BR/>I am thinking about making a codependent view point poetry book. You are welcome to work on it with me if you have time. <BR/>Would you mind if I put some of your scripture references from 2 Nephi into it? I will be sure to site your blog. Your have done a wonderful job. You must be a very thorough teacher.<BR/>kelly millerkelly millerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14498271336796100776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8337840823004696851.post-79725602867301702302008-04-08T17:00:00.000-07:002008-04-08T17:00:00.000-07:00Thanks, Janus, it's good to hear from you.
