Columbine
By: Noah Eaton
4/20/01

     

Columbine
Lacen spurs strumming in the daylight
Pontificating the spirit of peace in the nighttime
Grace of love divine

Travesty
Patters pools of azure will
Lavender commingle of greed
Frosting upon innocent pastel sepals

Injustice
Bleeding into the calyx of unified love
Breaking soft hearts in self-affliction
How despair can spread so rough

     

Sorrow
Ice on the shoulders of the winter
Wounded hearts slowly healing in many tomorrows
Leaves remaining of faint blister

Rise
To the light of God, for the spring has come again
After the rain subsides
Let our blessings outnumber the splinters, may wounds mend

Love
This breath of fresh air, life’s immortal wimple
To shine into your colorful heart, budding only more courageous buds
We the butterfly singing the psalms of faith, whispers of the faithful

Columbine
How your blue eyes sting with purple tears
Stretch your roots out now, kiss the lapis luzuli skies
Flowers may bleed, but no need to fear…
There will be seasons between seasons…
There will be seasons between seasons…
There will be seasons between seasons…

     

     




"You'll find something that's enough to keep you
But if the bright lights don't receive you
You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20

thank you

~~**~~
The sound of silence calls,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
The echo of our souls meet

You are taking on some serious subjects these days, Noah. Brave writes.

Lovely, sad pictures, too.

We shall never forget.
Thank you Noah.
Heart hugs~

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.
