Wings I spread my wings within the night To find the wind and lift in flight To fly into a mystic goal To find the entrance to my soul Its here I hear my own heart beat Locked within my bedroom suite Searching for the open door The open door to evermore It’s not the walls that keep me in Nor the damp or wet upon my skin But the power of desires fuel The kind that sends the mind to school It is the devil and his fear That keeps me from the sky so near And though I walk the edge of hell I fear to fall into the well But someday when all is done I’ll look back and say I’ve won |

I never miss a day in Sy-school. LOL     Well ... OK ... but you have to wash it first. |

It is the devil and his fear That keeps me from the sky so near And though I walk the edge of hell I fear to fall into the well But someday when all is done I’ll look back and say I’ve won To courageously stare that devil down...had to do that more than once in my own life. But the triumph you feel when all is said and done and you know you have won! This is a power-packed piece for me today. Thanks Seymour...I feel like I can take on any devil that comes my way!

It is the devil and his fear That keeps me from the sky so near And though I walk the edge of hell I fear to fall into the well Dear Seymour, This has touched me more than you know to-day. Fear is trying to get hold of me right now as I plan for a trip with my husband starting Saturday. I have had to stare fear in the face so many times in my life...for some of the simplist things...and I know that I have the strength...we ALL do...it's just believing in ourselves. Thankyou for this timely write. Blueberry muffins are nice and warm. hugs, Chris |

Good evening Sy ~~ We all have wings and some fly better and faster and higher than others. We can't let fear get in our way and stop us. Even baby steps are better than no steps at all. And in the end, hopefully we all will win. Loved this so much, hugs, Marti |
