The time is now for me to fly my mind into the winds of the ever seeing eye. To create my fantasy of blessings to shower down on those special enough, taking the time to read this and spread its words around. Oh Angel of internal healing Let me seek out the words to reach peoples souls To show them the beauty within Let the mirror they see Glow from the pride inside From a heart beating in that special way Oh Angel of external healing Let them discard that old shell That restricts them so Provide them an invisible armor That will protect from those Bent on those shrinking others ability To dance with the music of life’s pleasures Oh Angel of natures healing Show them the hummingbirds of color Whisking for the sweetness of the flowers See the eagle’s flight to the freedom of the mind To use their eyes to see all things That was caged away from sight before Let them lay in the beauty of a hillside Full of flowers with butterflies Tracing the sky with messages of love Oh Angel of man’s creativity Let not the dark shadow of despair overpower you Silence the acidity of the destroyer’s mouths Generate a gentle rain of pedals so soft That they reach inside those that hate To crack their shells from the weight of inner tears To burst out to cleanse this earth Let the mire some will build Step into the whirlwind of insight On how truly blessed we all are Oh my Angel How I have offended you for not speaking out Letting those that control have their way The bruises they inflicted hurt the pride But mine are worse for they are self-inflicted doubts People say let it lie that they do not know what they do But years of frustrations rust my way For their acidic mouths have eaten away my confinement For the White Eagle must now fly With the Angels right to change And create a few words to effect change in others For the new music must reclaim the spirits Of those lost who are now seeking themselves In the healing words that will break their shells Creating a new person so full of depth That the Angel of Angels must have blessed them Created on the dreams of hope on 11//26/01 D.Lester Young Tuscaloosa, AL |

Amazing inspiring words! Welcome fellow newbie! For anyone who has doubted a dream for anyone who has felt insecurities, these words are for them. If not to uplift them to inspire them to find themselves in such a painfilled world. Cheers! Awesome beginning! Ter. Alone in the dark, through my thoughts comfort I do seek, through my words I find peace. |

Thank you all for the generous invite. I can tell we have poets here who live with their emotions in their hands, putting the love inside them into the screen. Blessings from someone seeking a path to write from and into. |
