G a I a Gently you come by day or night to fill the best of dreams; lovely as rain on the river, warm as a Summer day: good, pure, perfect, you lift my soul to heaven, you make me want to live, to love, to understand and share. Your feet touching the earth bring forth new life as you step; small and light, you dance like a week-old fawn over swaying marsh grass. You laugh like a mountain stream; your passage is the will o' the wisp over the sands and the waters: like the killdeer, the loon in the mystery of a moonlit night you sing and call me to follow. Awake or asleep, in or out of dreams, I follow: a moth, a butterfly, running, dancing, laughing with you; I learn of life in paradise of love, of joy, of fullness untold. When I lie breathless at your feet and you smile at me: I learn to die and in my death, perfected in you I find new life, again! O, Love, so long hidden, mother, daughter, lover, child of the living womb-- prisoner of rusty superstition, the very memory of your tender love chained in dank dungeons of religious ignorance and fear. O, Lady of sweetness and joy, Giver of life, of truth, how long must you remain enslaved to these dark, dying times, your own world denied your love? How long must man oppress you and kill your children, their innocent, sacrificial blood dripping from your bruised feet? From you, Lady, I learned of life its intricacies and mysteries; from you I learned to love to gently touch, healing and giving, never to take, for all I need you provide with a smile a soft, beckoning gesture from outstretched, open hands full of springing love, full of ageless mystery and eternal hope! |

I am speechless, a very loving and tender write, I could feel Kacy throughout the entire poem, you have penned her well, and your heart so passionate, bleeds with so much love from your pen! Just beautiful beyond words... ~ARH |

I couldn't likely improve upon what Ms. "R.H." has already said ... and, I could easily 'hi-lite' the entire write! ... "your passage is the will o' the wisp over the sands and the waters: like the killdeer, the loon in the mystery of a moonlit night you sing and call me to follow." a simply magnificent 'penning' ... I have neither the words, nor 'skill' to do full justice to this poem or to the grand Gaia-spirit to whom it it dedicated! |

Absolutely beautiful! I do hope that Sara gets to read and keep this. I am still speechless, as although I knew it was coming, I had hoped it would not. She has sure given us all a new perspective on our surroundings that is for sure, and I miss her. |

"How long must man oppress you and kill your children, their innocent, sacrificial blood dripping from your bruised feet?" ahhh Windwalker you speak such tender truth I am sure Kacy would love it too. [This message has been edited by The Lady (01-28-2010 12:00 AM).] |

I simply wished to pay another 'official visit' to this marvelous 'dedication write' to a wonderful Gaia spirit ... sorely missed! |
