  • A short film based on a poem by James Patrick Kinney. 6 men are trapped in the bitter cold and their dying fire is in need of logs but even though each man is clutching a piece of wood, they cannot bring themselves to give to the dying fire due to their inner struggles. They eventually perish due to the cold when the fire dies and the irony is that they did not die from the cold without, they died from the cold within.

    Your Grandfather is a legend. People are given noble prices for the money they give, but the type of poem this is, he should have received the noble prize. He gave the message in a easy and short way. That's really great 👍👏😊

    Thank you for the comments and for watching my movie. It was interesting to hear from some comments that there was a woman. The script I had did not mention that but I see the word "men" as universal in meaning, representing all human kind. So my take is everyone is represented in this movie as we all have our sticks of wood.

    Our loved one liked this poem but he never knew who wrote it. He made me see the importance of the words but I didn't see the final piece of the picture until he was gone.

    This Poem was actually anonymously written many years ago. We first saw the original in the back of a life skills program book called Breaking Barriers published by Gordon Graham and Company. It's a shame that James Patrick Kinney changed some key words (enough to avoid copyright infringement and call it his own in an attempt to capitalize or boost his ego. This Poem was anonymously written given as a gift and as all spiritual things It should remain that way. A gift unchanged This is pathetic Patrick James Kinney

    • @traviskinney9660
      @traviskinney9660 8 років тому

      Also the book that you reference, Breaking Barriers, was written by Gordon Graham, and published by the Human Development Training Institute, in the year 1981. To give you an idea of how much later this book in question was published, as I have never read it, and truthfully was unaware that a copy of my grandfathers poem was in it, my grandfather died in 1974.

      Thank-you Travis Kinney Can you give us reference and/or access to the first publication of this poem? After our persual we will undoubtedly make a public written apology to your self and your Grand-father and admit our mistake. I have requested a copy of this poem as it appeared in Breaking Barriers. We will analize to see if the 20 or 30 percent of changed content as to avoid copyright infringement has been changed. Note; This is for our own knowledge base as to not make mistakes with our own material.

I mean no disrespect to any of you, so let us accept the delicious meal without microscopically trying to decipher who the real cook was or rather is. The fact remains the meal will still be delicious anyway........!! Much love to you all, peace. TMJ_00

    Love the comments, please keep them coming and spread the word. The personification of gender is applied universally here and can mean man or woman. We had fun shooting this on a cold February afternoon on the frozen Long Lake in Traverse City, Michigan. The one and only time that I will ever step on a frozen lake and 3 hours of continuous shooting boiled down to 3 plus mins of film. No wonder why making movies is so expensive. Can we get this to a million views? I would be tickled pink for sure!

    The person who was guided by religious prejudice and didn't gave his stick of wood because he saw someone not from his church was not a true Christian, because Christ our LORD GOD has commanded us to Love thy LORD thy GOD with all thy heart, mind, strength, understanding and soul and likwise LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF❤✝️
    Blessed be the LORD for He has shown us the true way for peace
    HALLOWED BE HIS NAME FOREVER AND EVER

    this poem is one of the best. though the video changed a few parts of the poem, it gives the same message. Us humans divide ourselves from one and other over the littlest things. whether it's race, religion, or economic status, people will always find a way to discriminate one and other over their corrupt beliefs of a superior race. some people don't understand that we are all humans and we shouldn't divide ourselves because one of us is different. everyone should be able to believe what they believe and love who they love without having to be discriminated against. discrimination is the worst crime.
