Humble songs of melancholy
Soothe our children's fright
Wrap their dreams with silver strings
And give them peace tonight

A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground

Hi, Kris. That reminds me of a soothing lullaby on Depeche Mode's latest disc. The song's called Goodnight Lovers, and within the folds of this sweet music -- "If you're born a lover, you're born to suffer like all soul sisters and soul brothers." And yet it's soothing.

That's what your poetry's like to me.

(big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is soooooo beautifully sentimental, I too reach out to all the children and wish for Him to guide them all with light! (sigh) This is touching, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kristopher, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
