In the Grand Canyon of negativity
That cuts deep into the veins
Slashing paths of deterioration
Taking with it the sediment of birth

But in all the excruciating pain
Can there not be stupendous beauty
For it you did not feel the wrath
How could you write from the heavens
In such depth your words cut with meanings
That another mind will explore in awe

In the layering of emotions
Can start the moisture to create landscapes
In visual appealing brilliance
With shaded depth of passion
That the storm in you subsides
In such rainbow satisfaction

So as gravity sends water spiraling down waterfalls
Sending meteors burning the night skies
It has sent people on a roller coaster rides
For it seems to affect the inner core of existence
Especially on moon filled nights

So in the depth of heaven and soul
Let the winds fly free of your tormented ways
The truth is about the creation you are about to make
On the rim of your Grand Canyon
With the power of a full moon night
With heaven’s meteors falling into your soul
Into a masterpiece of excruciating climaxes

(smiles) Oh my gosh, I love this, sweet friend, I know this feeling of grace so very much too standing on the chasm of a deserts canyon and feeling the breeze and hearing the coyotes howl! (sigh) You depict this vision so wonderfully, sweet friend, I LOVE IT, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Lester; I was so intune with your words of eternal wisdom. Here you have written the spiritual truth of the blossoming of a soul, that only unfolds it petals of Grace and wholeness through adversity and "The dark night of the soul"... Breathtaking and full of the hope of God's promise. Ellie

The last line was the pulse point of the entire write for me. It brought my mind to the mirror. ThisDiamond
