TO THE PEOPLE OF BOSTON; THE BEST OF HOPE

CALL YOUR NEXT BOMB SNIFFING DOG.
"BOSTON"
MAKE HIM HEAD STRONG. THAN HE CAN LEAD YOU TO THE WAY



POEATREEMAN TRIBUTE TO: If - Rudyard Kipling.: THE BEST OF HOPE
          
THE BEST OF HOPE TO THE PEOPLE OF BOSTON

If you can
Take the Worst
make it Best
You'll Feel
that Life is
Worth the Rest

If you can
Take the Worst
and make it Small
You'll make yourself
that much Tall

If you can
Take the Worst
Look at what it is
You'll be much
Wiser for it All  

If you can
Take the Worst
Deal
with its Quirks
You'll see
the Other Side
what can be Worse?

If you can
Take the Worst
Overcome
its Aims
You'll Feel
the Lesser
of its Pains          

If you can
Take the Worst
Look at the Best
You'll have Shared
your Tragedies
with Some Hope

If you can
Take the Worst
Keep your Heart
You'll have Touched
the Earth
with your Tears

If you can
Take the Worst
Walk with a Smile
You'll have Said
that Life was
Well Worth While.

TO ALL THE SOULS

GOD HAS CALLED

HEAVEN NOW

HOLDS THEM ALL

TO THE STUDENTS
OF VIRGINIA TECH
(THE HOKIES )

GOD IS WAITING
FOR YOUR CALL

IT TAKES LOVE
TO REACH  HIM
AFTER ALL

SORROW
DOES NOT END
WITH A PRAYER       
 
IT BEGINS
HEALING
WHEN FAITH
IS THERE.

A POET'S NOTE

TO THE PEOPLE OF BOSTON
Satan had
His Carnage
God
will have His Day
Sorrow
is not Easy
Hate
is not the Way
Love
will not be Easy
When
Hate is in the Way
Why
Cannot be answered
So Faith
must be your Way
