The still water silenced me, taking me back to a place far away
A place so long ago, a place I could not say

I am a part of a time with no beginning and now no end
A lost time, a time I could not lend

Send me back
Set me free
Send me home again

Take me with you
Help me out
Take away my pain

I long for a time and place where everything is as it seems
A time of loving memories of rainbows and sunbeams

A place where the birds fly free and all creatures are at peace
Take me back I beg of you, take me halfway at least

Halfway would do for now
Take me back
Please
Somehow

Tracie~
Such longing in this piece.

Return you now to that place
which you desire ...
halfway there,
the rest is but a step in time.

I like this poem, sometimes we'd give anything to go to that peaceful place when things go haywire. But is heaven right her on earth?
Something to think about!!!

tracie, this poem is emotionally beautiful,
and i agree with you..this place is special.. i feel like I was given a gift when I found it. take care, janet marie

 ...there are places inside all our souls...
