broken rays of ivory
pouring soft and endless
weeping through,
falling on, and taken

spoken days, yester years
standing harsh and helpless
slipping through,
rooted and foresaken

angel's raise spirits high
sharing in hopefulness
dripping through,
... cascaded ... mistaken

in the daze of it all
no caring, helplessness
creeping through,
lost within the making

in between and behold
the Heaven's slight caress
ripping through
silent Hells .... and breaking

CT

In rhythms to a rise the days shall follow ... each Yesterday, each Tomorrow. - Ct/05

omg Craig, I do think this one of your best ever. Painful, and beautiful at the same time. Very nicely done. Hugs.

Beautifully painful and yet heaven's caress brings a ray of light...I pray heaven's beauty enfolds your soul and takes away all the pain of hell's torment...Wonderful writing, my friend...*Big Hugs*

CT...Two word of this wonderful poem stand out to me.
hopefulness and helplessness

hopeful that all will be okay

helpless to change the outcome

Enjoyed very much...Paul

May heaven prevail.

Let the light filter through your own soul.

Your powerful words speak a reality that no one can escape. We witness hell and heaven on this Earth. What we can try is to keep our inner peace unaffected, it will make it easier to act.

Ctowen it is nice to read you.

Love,
Margherita
