I've written this and re-written it for so many a bereaved soul... here it is re-written again... Thank you Marge most dear Father Spirit from on high bless all those who keep you on their road of love and tenderness peace be surely theirs & also all the gentle strangers who by nature do not smile yes bless the ones who cannot hold a pen to tell their heavy toils and heart aches for their trials who dread thoughts of entering ‘cause fear of meeting them please keep them while on their road to better things to all the ones who learn to live with being second guessed whose job it is I guess to give more than get bless you all & keep you with the strength to understand all the little children with dreams & even the drunken man to all the weeping who must tomorrow wake all the ones who answer a letter from a bossy mom bless you all and keep you with the faith to let it pass to all the lonely who have trouble over being last to all of you with heart aches that remain I give in Christ to God love for all you my precious friends Amen Amen Amen ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ after Christian schools and all that Bible teaching and learning how to pray I thought I did really well... until one day someone commented how I should find space for myself... I still haven’t found that space... I’m not what it’s about when I pray... It’s you . Writing isn't just something I do, it's something I am. To write of feelings that touch all hearts in some manner is my delight. -Marge Tindal [This message has been edited by lucky (edited 02-06-2001).] |

This is beautiful, Marge. I am sure that when lucky comes back, the glow of the lights left on for him here will be an altogether enchanting and loving sight.

Not only is it set sail in the open sea of your heart but with a full wind of compassion blowing it onwards in strength and sincerity. Lovely verse my friend and you already know that I love the shape ones best so we need not go into that. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |
