Internal Rhyme As each tear fell down in silence there was no one to hear the swell. Only the earth could feel the sting of salt when catching each one as it fell. The wind heard the cries when no one else could hear and Mother Earth felt the sorrow that was blended with the fear. The trees danced around me as they tried to make me grin but a heart knows no laughter when things become so dim. The wind whispered softly trying to soothe a weary mind and it tried to ease the pain held within this heart of mine. The sun, it did embrace me as it tried to warm my heart but the chill lingers on when a hearts been torn apart. Mother Earth tried to speak to me as also did Father Time, to fill me with their peace and tranquil thoughts sublime. I feared I might no longer hear when the spirits spoke to me but still they didn't give up they held me close and tenderly. The Eagle soared above me in the distance and to him I turned my gaze while the clouds gave way to the brightness of haze. Then in unison they spoke they were calling me to hear. The message they were sending was making it so clear. Even through the darkest days there will always come the light and there will be a time to leave the darkness to the night. Believe in what your heart hears, listen to the internal rhyme~ all things shall pass and life heals........with time. repost from archives seek the flame within yourself and let your soul be cleansed by the fire of love.

This is really beautiful. The whole idea of all of creation trying to soothe our soul, wonderful. I do think there were a couple rough patches with the flow but it did not detract from the absolute beauty of it at all. |

 (angel friendship hugs) Oh Donna, this is ever so true, as I believe faith and all of life's little wonders make up the cadences and skipped heartbeats in-between, and it's in these spaces where we find solace and relief! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you!
