One cold dark night you’ll stop and read a name upon a stone Your heart is stilled you can’t believe the name it is your own This one last chance is all you have to write your last cold rhyme For your life makes not a mark upon the march of time Feeling pain the cleansing rain, a love, a loss……alone A small success and all that’s left your name upon a stone So if that lonely night is near that stone you clearly see Before you hang your head and cry just think of what might be So spend your time creating hope spread love to your own Then it wont seem so cruel that name upon a stone Thanks RWS Jon Mewett [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 04-02-2000).] |

This certainly gives one something to think about. Very poignant. Sheila ...the earth and myself are of one mind. The measure of the land and the measure of our bodies are the same........... Joseph, Nez Perce Chief |
