    borrowing hope

    i saw your shooting star
    dipping in the night sky
    wondering if i could use the wish,
    i pocketed it til further notice

    Almost, nearly, just about, a Haiku. Really sweet.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
