Wherever you are

If you are sad and if you feel blue

If you feel lost and desperate too

Look to the sky for answers up high

Never say never and never say why

Look for the rainbow and the promise it holds

YOU ARE NOT ALONE

YOU ARE NEVER ALONE

    Words that reassure the confused soul... Yes, we are not alone.

    So much power with only a few lines. I'll take them to heart for whenever lonely times hit. Thank you for writing and sharing this, Susan. You are never alone, either.

    Dear Susan ~ "You are not Alone" ~ You are a marvelous storyteller, but it is not about the 'Pennies,' it's about the joy of creating, and that we actually can. *I've subscribed to you with pleasure. I've asked the Vocal Brass many times for a 'Senior' category, with no response. Sadly, we are in the out-to-pasture Generation demographics. Seniors love to interact with one another with their favorite long-term memories. Susan, I actually give 'Creative Writing' sessions to Senior Centers, helping residents write 'For their Kids Someday.' It's very meaningful to me: Perhaps it's something you might explore. I'm just a retired legal professional morphed into a silly storyteller with my goofy sketches leading into them; nothing more; not into contests or on-demand writing 'Schtick.' - I Care - Jay Kantor, Chatsworth, California 'Senior' Vocal Author - Vocal Village Community -

    What a lovely sight, Susan. My sister believes her children's father, who passed away some years ago, is near whenever she sees a rainbow.
