Where diamonds, blue and glowing
Adorn the evening sky,
Where willows never have to weep
And children never die,
Where crimson sunsets bathe the sea
As herons take to flight,
Where angels dance on frosted clouds
And bask in God's delight,
It's there that I will harbor,
Where there is naught but truth,
It's there I'll find my haven,
There is my place with you.

Poetry is just the evidence of life.
If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. "
Leon Cohen~

You may not realize how pure the visions of your heart...but we do.
