Wow that was great - really overwhelming emotionally but great!

I posted the poem, and this poem tochies me so much because i lost my father in a drunk car accidnt when i was younger and it bugs me when i hear about other people losing members of thier family to the same thing, so this poem means alot to me!

As for the poem? I've read it a few times before and it's quite poignant.

This is a sad poem, ive read it before. and its really good and has a great message.

in response to What James Snedden^^ said,

it is true that it was circulated as a petition... but here is something interesting:

"Unfortunately, no matter how well-intentioned, this petition is actually having a negative impact because people who don't know what to do with it are bombarding MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) with it, clogging their e-mail and taking up the time of staff members who now have to spend time responding to it rather than helping drunk driving victims. People who truly want to help should visit MADD's Activism (www.madd.org/activism) page instead."

I Got an email with that poem in it. I signed my name and my mom's name and passed it on to 20 of my closest friends.

Drinking and driving is wrong. Wait till you stop.

And anyone has to be sloshed to get in a car with me behind the wheel.

I always loved that poem.
