China Roses(Enya) Midi File

Welcome Home


To touch a star as it explodes,
And be consumed,....... Become,
A part of the cosmic fire of life.
Keeping your sanity is hard on flights,
Without wings or patterns,
On warm endless nights.

I became a star in flight.,
Swept along by a solar wind,
Across the vastness of the unfamiliar,
Until “welcome home” rang out,
To fill the void with reassurance,
And draw me close inside.

Warmth and softness rushed to greet me,
Splitting the darkness with understanding,
My soul lay open then, as yet unexplored,
As I was immersed in swells of ecstasy,
And a rhythm touched my senses,
Deeper than the music of my dreams.

©1996 By Sherry Gardner

Thank you everyone for replying. Incidently, I tried to table this one with a background too but I just couldn't get it to work.  Back to the drawingboard.  By the way, the two pics are both my first and second attempt to "space-out" in Photoshop. Hope you enjoyed them.

Love, Light and Peace,

Sherry

This is so beautiful. I love the poem, the
pictures and the music. A very good book submission.
Hugs,

Do you mind telling me how you get the
music on your poems? I love that, but don't
know how to do it. I have Crescendo Plus on
my computer.
Thanks

this made me think of a musical book! it would be difficult to make but with writings like these along with the pictures and music...that would be splendid! What a touch! I suppose though some things are easier done on the net instead of in material. At least we have this here to come to.
