Hark! Who goes there?
Be ye man or beast in shadows dark?
Bare thy face lest ye be known a coward!
Show unto me thy serpentine eyes of glowing red
that I might smite the evil coiled there.
Dost thee not recognize the avenging angel of God
with excaliber raised in the name of all that is Good?
Begone, monsters of Darkness!
God's White Light is mightier than thy demon seed!

You gotta know how much I love this.


Only you could write such. Sounds similar to my nightly prayer...grins...

You would scare the daylights of any evil spirit come round you!

I so enjoy your spirit, Miss Linda...

this is great...

Hugs, Trish/Pat, regards2you

Hark! Who goes there?

I bet you were a little bit surprised with this post of mine! Not the usual fare that I dish out! --It must be the planetary alignments at this time!

Lovin' hugs,

Bravo!  You go girl!!  Nicely done Linda..

Smite the evil of all the land
wield thy sword within thy hand.
Rest not thy bone upon thy quest
for evils lurks, requires no rest!

I got the power now.  Thanks Earth Angel.  Had that feeling of hopelessness tonight.  You gave me the sword with which to fight the demon.

I feel so empowered.  

Inspired genius you are Earth Angel.  Your writing here is wonderfully charged and has called me to arms.  So awesome!

You have looked into the Dragons cave
and must admit you were very brave.

One would hope these words are true.  No scholar here, so I'll take comfort in your words and trust you know more about the powers of good and evil than I.
good stuff,

Joe

You are safe from this avenging angel--unless you have serpentine eyes that glow red in the dark of night...

This reply to you is my 8,000th post! I find it hard to believe--and for it to be with you, my friend! How timely is that?!?

The numbers will change as soon as I post another reply, but I'll remember it was with you!

Glad you enjoyed!

P.S. What color are YOUR eyes???

My eyes are naturally green, I'm scary enough without the glowing red eyes, but with the magic of colored contacts they can easily turn into whatever mood I’m feeling. =)

Green eyes are so beautiful! Why would you ever want to cover them up with colored contact lenses?
