Long we fell from that great height,
falling through the failing light.
From where
to here
to know
delight.
Oh, to fall from such a height!


Tell me how you feel despite
that wrong is wrong.  Is it alright
to peer
to fear
to know
the fright,
that wrong is wrong and it's alright?

Lay down your troubled head this night.
No doubt your precious in his sight.
You hear
you care
you grow
despite,
that wrong is wrong, we're here tonight!

This touched me to my core

This reminds me of my ex, whom despite all I will love with every inch of me until the day my sould embraces the ether.

Wonderful write, yours is.

this brought me to a place realizing
the knowing...the purpose, and the kindness in the wrongs, once they are again set upright...dear sweet lass of life...she sings greatness to our side
and you have inspired such a greatness of that life....

Hugs

Oh,

I didn't know it was "that" good...

I am going to read it again myself!

(kidding here).

Listen, I so appreciate each and every one of you.

You have made me "feel" at home" at your forum.

THANK YOU!

Hugs,
Kathy
