Let me dance with angels.
Let me wear a crown of glory.
Feed me from the bread of kindness.
Let your ears hear my story.
Let fire dance in my hair.
Let me have wings to fly.
Let me drink from waters
so blue they rival the very sky.
I ask no silver on my platter –
no jewels or shining gold…
My prayer is to be freed
from the cage of growing old.
Let my feet again know music.
Let strong arms hold me at night.
Give me dreams that do not shatter
in the glare and glow of light.
Let me dance with angels
and run on strong, sure feet.
Let me find the goodness
in every one I meet.
Let me be judged for who I am,
for things I write and feel …
Not for society’s concept
of what is true and real.

"A woman is like a tea bag, you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water..." Eleanor Rooevelt

I have a feeling, should you ever visit the archives of Passions, that you will find dancing, angels, and other glories to help you enjoy this twilight of time....

Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps
