 Eden ~ Lost and Found ~Linda L. Dowd ~ As spiraling leaf in wingless flight, thy soul slipped in rudderless descent and into dimensions of chaos and confusion. In mindless wander, thou hast circled many a lightless moon with no respite from Dante’s scorching sands. Thy tormented screams hath pierced mine heart with the precision of Grim Reaper’s scythe, ~ echoing far into the furthest reaches of time. I beseech thee, drink not the blood of Satan from unholy grail, but raise to thy lips, the gold chalice of the Mightiest Olympian, and sip the sweetest of all god nectars. I call upon the powers of All That Is Holy, to lift thy desolate spirit high into the ethers of His illumination, casting yowling demons of darkness into the endless, hadean night. With the gathering of angel wings, may you be swept above the hell fires of Eden Lost and into the Light ~ of Eden Found. |

Linda.... this is standing outside much of your "usual" pennings... and I would venture to guess that you were visited with a thought, emotion, feeling... and you left for us the tracks of the trail... that we might find our way. Somehow, it seems only an Earth Angel could do this for everyone else. Thank you. |
