When all is said and all is done, I wonder where I will be
I hope again my eyes to see, the far out spread of the cottonwood tree
The grasses blow in gentle wind, waving tides to the ever end
Where I started and where I end, can only be know on the blowing wind

Yellow skies above you, the ancients did say
When you walked the fields where you would lay
The old ones knew and wait for me
To dance their dance of spirit free

The ancient wolves do howl, in the starry night
As the rainbow bridge brings me in their sight
As I knew you, so you knew me
The loves we shared are know to thee

We are not to stay on this earthly bound
But not to fear, you sought, you found
I came when you called, till you needed me naught
Then left on the wind, when you found what you sought

Tis the last I come to spread words to thee
For the fire dims down and ancients call to me
When the sun draws nigh and dusk does fall
Then listen close to the mourning dove call

Ahhh, dear Sissie, I am afraid my muse walked one way and I another. Only a few words whispered in my ear this eve to post once more, where the muse went and when she returns is a never known nowdays. But your Sunshine always lights any post especially this one

Oh Logan, you brought such a smile to this face tonight. Its as if you heard my plea for you to return.
You are so kind and generous with the replies you gifted me with on my Autumn write. Sincere thanks.

This especially spoke to my heart and spirit tonight:

"We are not to stay on this earthly bound
But not to fear, you sought, you found
I came when you called, till you needed me naught
Then left on the wind, when you found what you sought"

This is beautiful... to be given what's needed when it's needed is an incredible gift. *S*

Logan,

It seems that you have been away from your
nest also.  Still not sure if I am here
for a bit or not...always enjoy reading you.
Continue to share!
