About This Quote

The above quote is from a poem that was written by John Martin. The poem was about his father who died at the age of seventy-five years. During this time, he had lost his wife and five of his children as well as grandchildren and great-grandchildren. One of the many things that came to mind when he thought about the fire and frost of memories, love, solace and prayer was about his father. He realized how lucky he was to have the love and solace of family and how grateful he should be for the power of prayer that helped him through all those difficult times.
