Alas, alas, This sorry lass, Has gone awhile Without a smile. My life is fraught For I have naught, No seeds to sow, Nowhere to go. Time ticks by Yet here I lie, Without a hope And cannot cope. I shan't live long Without a song, No tears to cry Tho' soon I'll die... Behold! A light! Drinks up the night! Beyond yon' door, Perhaps there's more! Shouldst I dare Cross over there? Perhaps a peak For love I seek. The lure is strong, I shan't stay long. It beckons me Across a sea. The winds do blow, Yet I must go... Alas, I'm lost On seas wind-tossed!... Now all is still, I've drunk my fill, I must return From my sojourn... What's that I hear? I need not fear, 'Tis tunnel dark With sound of harp. A golden beam Shines so serene, At younder end Beyond the bend. To God I pray I'll find my way... I see a face! A smiling face! I'm so aglow, It frees my soul! On wings of dove I've found pure love! I soar on high, No more to cry. The pain is gone! I'm filled with song! |

Noah---Nice to see a familiar face (reply)!! I'll be dropping in from time to time to post some more of my work here. I think I may, later on, post my prose/essays in that other forum as well. Linda |

Paul and Marti, this poem has never been heard or seen by others, until today. I wrote it several years ago, when I had pneumonia and very nearly died. I appreciate your kind words. Linda |
