I've been really busy lately, and it's been a long, long time since I've been in here. But I have still thought about all you many times, especially after I received my copy of "Reflections On the Web". I realized once again as I was reading it that there are some really great poets here. So I hope you don't mind if I stop in again...

--------

We live a life of logic
Where one and one is always two;
Regardless of how hard we try
It cannot equal something new.

But in our lives we all have times
We sympathize with the sunrise;
Our soul’s adorned with eagle wings
To fly through heaven’s bluest skies!

And in this world of logic
There still are choices we must make:
To pass the calling sunrise
Or every given chance to take!

Next time you see a sunrise
Oh, will you come and dream with me?
Because it’s only when we see
Through eyesight of the soul we’re free!

(big angel hugs) God Bless You, sweet friend, it can be a bit of a dark truth but I do believe so much when you amount to the sun, it can amount to so much more blessings in the end, yay, I'm so happy to see you back, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Benjamin, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20

I enjoyed the "logic" of your poem. Very well written. Give yourself a day off with pay!!! Grover.

Benjamin, sorry that I missed you when
you stopped in. I do like this poem and
am glad I looked on the back today.
