And I am
As a hollowed reed
Swayed by life's most passionate
Winds - emptiness mourned
As solitary sound.


And yet I am
As a hollowed reed
Played holy by the whispered
Breath of God - a singular instrument
Within a symphony of sound.

I am
A
Hollowed
Reed.

  Amazing imagery... I can hear the music of this hollowed reed, and I do heed the message in its sacred song. You are a Divine musician, playing perfectly a masterpiece of pure Love and Light. This is such an incredible poem... thank you for the Light of your words.  You are truly a phenomenal Messenger.  You listen so very well...

Love,
Moca

(smiles) Whenever I hear a poet use the word hollow in their verse before, it always seems to be used in a depressing and haunting context, but I truly believe there is a belssing in being hollow, so the music can curse through you, for if there's no hole in the wood, then nothing can get in and how do you know a spirit ever got in? (big hugggssssss) I love this, sweet friend, let your flute of the heart bellow to the wind, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eric, thank you for sharing!



May love and light alwyas shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You have me listening in awe to the Breath of God.
A caress for the soul.
Love, Margherita
