Om Please Click Link above to hear music and my voice recording. Music is entitled “Lifestream” From the Reflections album “Aromatherapy”  Artist: M. Beatrice Adams Om by Linda L. Dowd +*+*+*+*+*+ Motes of stardust envelope me, As mists roll in from a cosmic sea. And air perfumed with Heaven’s scent, Removes all trace of discontent. I’m carried high on angel wings, Thru’ endless skies as Choir sings. All pains and sorrows, they lift from me, As my soul ascends and I’m set free. As I cast off Earth feet of clay, With thankfulness ~ in heart, I pray. God wraps me in His love and grace, ~ I fear not death, in His embrace. Corinthian columns and hallowed halls, Glow with the Light from Spirit Falls. Cascading waters surround God’s home ~ With reverence, I whisper “Om”. This journey of forever miles, Has brought an end to all my trials. As I stand strong ~ no longer bent, I thank Him for His angels, sent. Motes of stardust envelope me, As mists roll in from a cosmic sea. And air perfumed with Heaven’s scent, Removes all trace of discontent. +*+*+*+*+*+ “We are borne of star dust, and to the stars we shall one day return.” ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ |

Shannon, Linda's daughter asked me on Linda's behalf to post the following message: "This poem is just a small way for Earth Angel to reconnect and touch base with her PIP family while she is away, and she says 'thank you' to everyone for their support." However, it is not a SMALL way. It is HUGE, because it comes with all of Linda's love and light and compassion and caring. The daily messages to her in Announcements show just how much she is loved in this forum. Love you so much, Linda. Gentle hugs as I don't know where what hurts. Owl |

Owl, this brings tears and is as touching as it was when I read Linda's first posting of it. Thank you Linda, and please know that we are all still here and thinking of you. Love and hugs, jo |

For a long time, I was reading at work and unable to listen to EA's voice as I enjoyed her poetry. But I finally got smart and bought a set of earphones! LOL And I learned two things: 1) I really should have these "bright ideas" in a much more timely fashion *G* and 2) work that I didn't think could possibly be improved is even more beautiful when enhanced by her reading the words she wrote straight from the heart. *S* Thank you, sweet Owl, for giving us this special treat! And Angelic One... you are as talented as you are dear and I pray you heal quickly and completely... {{{{{HUGS}}}}} |

when words like 'beautiful' and 'exquisite' fail for lack of depth, you can be certain you have been reading exceptional poetry...these words simply confirm that...thank you for sharing...once again |

What a delight to listen to your Angel voice, dear Linda. This touching poetic message is so soothing and divine, it lingers in the heart. You are in my heart prayers always. I am back at home, but have a life long friend from Switzerland visiting, so I won't be around much these days. But as you well know the heart connection does not know any interruption. Thank you, dear Diana, for your "service of love" ... Sending all my love, along with my deep appreciation of your wonderful talent and big hugs. Get well soon!    Margherita |

Sent up to here. No Internet connection last night. Intermittent one now too, at best. I have had my problem escalated and have emailed David Murphy who is quite high up but Murphy's Law only allows him to work on weekdays so he should get my email (if it went through at the same time as Linda's - haven't checked yet) only on Monday, but hopefully I should have my problem sorted within about a week after that.

Thank you, my dear Diana, for reposting my audio poem for me. It was my attempt to speak to my pip friends from my hospital bed. I appreciate all of the kind and generous responses. Thank you all very much! Love & Light, EA |

Yes, Linda, it is so lovely to see you here. I am sending the replies to you even though you have seen them, just so that you don't have to save them yourself. Lots and lots of love Owl |
