Again We Breathe Quieten now my precious child! There'll be no more cries to alarm Just rest a while your weary soul Tonight you sleep devoid of harm We'll think only of the angels touch And softly wonder how they fly Cradled quietly in those loving arms There's no more tears from clouded eye Each life so fragile to be lost Just one small part of the whole But as you pass from this place on Hear the cry of our shattered souls Minds are numbed with pain and fear Yet each new dawn, again we breathe Nothing left but these useless tears All I can do is pray and grieve "Let me pierce the realm of glamour |

We'll think only of the angels touch And softly wonder how they fly Cradled quietly in those loving arms There's no more tears from clouded eye How beautiful and comforting! Very uplifting in its reach for something higher and softer than we've ever known. Hug and Prayers. Sincerely, Regina |
