I haven't seen this poem before and I like it a lot. My favorite is the very last stanza. Actually the last two stanzas. Hmm, I'm starting to understand why you ended up bolding almost the entire thing =P. I didn't expect the part you bolded in the second to last stanza, and made me feel warm and fuzzy inside, sort of happy and sad at the same time. And the last stanza I feel like I can relate to- knowing that once I say things they will just be words, and thinking about how words can actually detract from meaning sometimes, even though most of the time they help us get across what we're trying to say.
ps- since you reminded me about Halleluia I started listening to it again, and then it was stuck in my head today, and then I heard someone playing it on the piano downstairs when I went to do my laundry, and it was all very cool because I hadn't thought of that song forever and now it's popping up all over!
