(This is a song dedicated to everyone who is going through some tough times and need prayers, but this is dedicated most of all to our friends Auguste, Kit McCallum, and Madame Chipmunk, who need our love and prayers so much! We all love you so much, dearest friends, you are in my thoughts always! )

Wind Beeath Your Wings
By: Noah Eaton
5/5/02

Every night I'm endlessly praying
I wish I wasn't so far away
You wish you could make this day end faster
You've ran out of reasons to stay

I can feel you crying from miles apart
You do all you can to remain steadfast
Life feels like a monotonous Maple Leaf Rag
You wish you could use the other keys at last

Well we are all children of God
All invited to His spiritual prom
He loves us all
He will never let us fall
We're all birds of the same wing
We're all leaves on lifes sacred tree
He will never let you go
He will always blanket you from the cold
He is always here
You are never alone
Love will always find a way
Love will always find a way
A new beginning always leads off from an end...
Your wings will heal again, my friend...

Life indeed has its share of ups and downs
You swear you never remembered when you began aging
You watch moments go by and you regret it
Every day feels like some kind of biopsy

For days you feel truly bedridden
Waiting for an angel to touch your face
You are a true angel underneath it all
Now find that child in you and believe you can make your spirits raise

Well we are all children of God
All invited to His spiritual prom
He loves us all
He will never let us fall
We're all birds of the same wing
We're all leaves on lifes sacred tree
He will never let you go
He will always blanket you from the cold
He is always here
You are never alone
Love will always find a way
Love will always find a way
A new beginning always leads off from an end...
Your wings will heal again, my friend...

You are in my thoughts every evening
I am contemplating, I am crying
Know you are loved by many every second
This all will pass...
This all will pass...

Well we are all children of God
All invited to His spiritual prom
He loves us all
He will never let us fall
We're all birds of the same wing
We're all leaves on lifes sacred tree
He will never let you go
He will always blanket you from the cold
He is always here
You are never alone
Love will always find a way
Love will always find a way
A new beginning always leads off from an end...
Your wings will heal again, my friend...

Our thoughts are with you
Hold on
Be strong
A new day is approaching
Love will find a way...
The wind is always beneath your wings...
You will fly again...


"Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

Noah, this is probably one of the best pieces of yours that I have seen from you.  And Congratulations on your 11000th post.  Your heart is showing here, young man, and I hope I am one of the first that say how proud I am of you, and all you contribute to Passions...

First the congratulations, Noah...on reaching 11,000 posts, quite an achievement.

Next, I want to congratulate you on an absolutely gorgeous poem.

and finally, I want to tell you how touched I am that you would be kind enough to keep me, as well as Michael and Kit in your thoughts the way you have been.
I especially loved this line

The wind is always beneath your wings...
You will fly again...

I sincerely want to believe that.  

I finished my radiation treatments on Thursday and have been so sick and exhausted from them that I have not been able to get out of bed since then, but David has set up the computer in the bedroom and this is definitely lifting my spirits.  Tomorrow, I am going to try going outside for a bit.

~many sweet hugs

How unselfish of you, Noah, to take a personal milestone
and turn into a tribute while thinking of others.

That's what i like about your poetry, and your personality, Amigo,
how you give so much without a thought of the return.

You are one cool dude!  Great song-poem, Noah.  Written
with a flow of wind behind each line.

Oh Noah ... I'm late to say thank you my dear friend ... but it is never "too" late! This was so lovely, and I can't thank you enough for the warm sentiments and well wishes ... just beautiful!  I'm happy to say I'm doing well now, and appear to be over the worst of my problems. Just trying to get back into the swing of things now, and I'm a little slow at the gate ... but good.  

Congratulations on 11,000 Noah!  You are such a sweetheart!  

Best wishes and thank you to everyone ... big hugs,
/Kit
