The devil
Walks in every forest.
He points an angry finger at God,
And he waits.

Everywhere
Is the little band of disciples
Cloven from the devil's side.
And they watch.

Here...take my hand.
We'll wait beneath the pines
In luxurious grass of wonder
Seeking him.

Here...let me
Pile the fallen needles at your back.
In every forest walks
A devil.

So true so true.Also in every forest lies the path that God wishes us to follow and will guide us safely home.

Devils... If I remember correctly. Satan was but a fallen angel of God, who challenged him, with questions and was cast out of heaven...

perhaps questions are the work of the devil, for without them, we might all well be better off...

I know a question lurks behind every tree..and in this forest, many a question is asked...

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet Larry, sadly the devil will always be eavesdropping in the wild but all at once He will protect us with shelter and the sunbeam! (sigh) This is wonderful, sweet friend, I am so happy you're here, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Larry, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
