Oh heavenly night The angels are singing While your whispers are praying Heavens gates have opened A celestial dance in full glory But the visions within keep crying From the sorrows of a weak heart All the thunder applauds an existence Reverberating in choruses so exhilarating That the music raises the spirit beyond reality But lonely echoes still shatter the inner soul In the gravity of the past holding down your head Again the words whisper from within As the intensity explodes in a gentle tear With so much emotion that it is truly blessed And you become aware of your precious gift Raising your spirits you are blinded pure All the doubts from years of frustration vanish The burdens of years of self pity Vindicated in such self worth, smiling deep within In a whirling blessing the sky closes To your confused voice Shouting amen So in these words of a poet Who still seeks guidance from above My tormented words lie in you seeing The angels fly from my words right into your heart In the whispers that will set us both free Becoming aware of our precious gift of inner life D.Lester Young 9/26/2002 Tuscaloosa, AL Copyright © D.Lester Young (White Eagle poetry) |

AMEN! Putting that feeling into words, to me, doesn't seem easy. You've expressed this perfectly!  I will keep this one in my library. ~Sheri |
