Feathers Of Your Wings To know that peaks of joy exist You must compare a graph, a list. Of valley’s bright with sun and green And rugged mountains lean and mean. Start your feet on their mundane way Make the rounds of your mundane day. Lower yourself into your well Of all past hurt and all past hell Only then can you tweak the peaks Against the base of darkest bleaks Expose your world and fly your dove Into the high and low of love For freedoms made of living things Those feathers grown upon your wings Shown in the light and dark of hue That shines within your eyes and you. It is a window of your soul It is a doorway to your goal. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (edited 06-03-2001).] |

Wonderful, Seymour! The flow of this is superb, the message grand. I do wonder if 'graft' is the word you want here, however. It of course means to graft together one plant with another, and also to receive money dishonestly. I might not have read the definitions completely enough to come to the one you're using here, but I couldn't find one that seemed to fit. Please teach me if you meant this word. I'm wondering if you meant 'graph.' |

Ah Seymour you're writing such learned and sage lines these days!! Great writing! I think I might be able to live with these great lines!! "Lower yourself into your well Of all past hurt and all past hell Only then can you tweak the peaks Against the base of darkest bleaks Expose your world and fly your dove Into the high and low of love For freedoms made of living things Those feathers grown upon your wings Shown in the light and dark of hue That shines within your eyes and you. It is a window of your soul It is a doorway to your goal." |
