    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

    15 been found, hope they find the missing 3. Must be an awful worry for their family and friends. Thought's are with them all
    Good-bye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart's the memory and there you'll always be
