Whose kiss upon these lonely lips now placed
will ease the nagging ache of lonely days

Whose tender arms enfold this haggard soul
naked to the night in shameful disarray

This savior simply dressed in common fare
drawn to the one so carelessly ignored

Restores a peace oft lost in fruitless strife
provides a shield against the threat of harm

Question not this miracle adorned in scented frame
this star that glows but once to wretched beings

Lift up the spirit since hammered into dust
reach up to hold the one that offers life

For is not life preferred in boundless joy
whatever span be drawn in mindless fate

To the dreaded darkness and solitary fare
Of existance wasted on an inward course

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

So poignant and lovely…the cadence has a life of its own.

Thank you my friends. This was indeed a labor of love for me.

Beautiful poetry, Peg...reads like a dream...

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.
