For Noah, and his ceaseless endeavor to to be kind to everyone,
sharing all the while his way of seeing the things we see,
the thoughts we have, and the 15,000 times and more
that he's done so!

Words

Words, like a stream cascading down a hillside,
flow down a page, cleansing, soothingly washing ones soul,
deeply touching the heart,
whispering...there's so much more to be told.

Words like the fiercest wind
strip the façade from ones face,
exposing flesh that hasn't seen sun - forever…
giving birth to the beauty long hidden in waste.

Words, from the pen of the poet,
birthed on the wings of angels,
spewed forth from the fires of hell,
Given life by all in-between…

Words, from the poets pen,
flow down the page,
cleansing,
soothingly washing ones soul,
giving life to the secrets
hidden within.

Words.

From me to you,
my friend.

...and thank you Lauren for letting me know.

(smiles) Awwwwwwwww, thank you so so much for this precious gift, now I am sobbing tears with joy! Honestly, I never thought I'd get this far, I guess it's due to all the love of inspiration of reading poetry of all kinds from all different hearts and the ceaseless admiration you all share for me that got me to post so much! It's because of YOU and all my friends that got ME to continue to write (BIG HUGGGSSSSSS) You are a true friend to all our hearts, I thank you deeply, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I lean against the wind pretend I am weightless and in this moment I am happy

James, this is a wonderful tribute to our sweet Noah!
He's always the first one there to be helpful,
sign a post or lend a helping hand.
And besides he is a talented writer, far beyond his years.
