I am german, so the english language is not my natural language, but I understand all the meaning, it's wonderful to have this experience in a foreign language. Wonderful poem.

This is the kind of poetry one can relate with. There are so many people who have things to say, but refrain. I am one of them. It brings out their feelings. Great job.

Its one of the most beautiful and touching poems i've ever read. With words so simple, yet meanings so deep. Lovely.
