Can You Hear

The bells of heaven toll in vain
For all the souls were lost in pain
Each flight of egos light and burn
Winging o’er the lamp of learn

The use of force in salad toss
Have burnt the fields to charred remorse
And poisoned elements of endure
With the venom of false allure

Chaos lifts a hydras head
That doubles if one cut, to dead
And feeds upon the grit and grime
Forever in the soul of time

The quick that lifted me to light
Has turned the wick to dead of night
And I am lost in catacombs
Of times forever pile of bones.

I fly upon a butterfly
The shape of which, good God is why.

Good morning, Mr. T. ~

Oh, yes! I can hear! But I was saddened to hear what I heard!

"The quick that lifted me to light
Has turned the wick to dead of night
And I am lost in catacombs
Of times forever pile of bones."

~ That will never do, no sireeebob! You get that wick of yours back into the light and the live of day! I may not be a butterfly, but I do have wings! Hop aboard my back and we'll head off into the beautiful light of day and out of the dark catacombs!

Loves, 'n hugs, 'n angel kisses,
EA

It last me well throughout the day
