In All My Life I was taught to chase rainbows and to ride the wind as far as I could To not allow myself to think I'm bigger then nature's pleasures That I should enjoy what today brings that tomorrow may be gone And, to view myself as fortunate that I can witness nature's treasures... And, once upon a time I stood on top of the world I lived my days communicating to all displayed before my eyes For I understood the rain and was nighttime's greatest friend I've never felt such completeness to relate to nature's cries... In all my life I've never felt how equal was supposed to feel Until nature's hands touched my thankful soul For I danced with the leaves every time there was a breeze And, my awareness to beautiful simply took control... In all my life I never knew that freedom could sing That willing to listen I found answers word for word So, with all my might I let the sun lead me to pastel waters And, my thirst for faith soon became the most awesome tune heard... In all my life I never thought I'd walk on courage's ground Until the storms placed their arms around me I became one with the lightening never again to be frightening And, to bravery's door I held the key... In all my life knowledge has never been this easy to find And, in all my life I never knew strength could be a friend of mine For I have viewed breath taking in it's many shades of love And, have kissed such loyalty that many have only dreamed of... @~~~>~~~> Sauni Sauni @~~~>~~ |

Saunni~ This is just so profoundly lovely~ 'In all my life I never thought I'd walk on courage's ground Until the storms placed their arms around me I became one with the lightening never again to be frightening And, to bravery's door I held the key...' *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

I like this one. Makes me want to run out in the rain. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |
