Sarah You were but a whisper in your mother's arms you grew into the child I would keep from harm you were to be a Queen upon a covenant Sarah, you were to be the one I was meant to protect Sarah can you be my dream after all these centuries can you be the one in my reveries should you know my face will it then be known you were always in my heart for you I'll always roam Sarah Sarah the name of my heart Sarah, Sarah I've now come apart you were but a whisper you were to be a Queen you were to be the one for you I'll always dream… Sarah……. ©Karilea Rilling Jungel 2 September, 2000 [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 09-03-2000).] |

you were but a whisper you were to be a Queen you were to be the one for you I'll always dream… Sarah……. This one just slides off the screen in a whisper like the breeze through the branches, beautiful and haunting. Sit down and bargain "Until your tongues are dry If the havoc and the shame continue We'll drown you in our putrefaction" Primo Levi |

Sunshine, this is, indeed, a song of the heart, and its music is tender and timeless. Absolutely captivating. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
