The center point from which you gather yourself in the reason to expand with. The dreams we carry sometimes are too dark They allure to a foreboding of an evil They seem to carry us downwards to depressions Of hell holes of self pity Which is a cancer that steals our thoughts Into whirlwinds of intertwining doubts Down we go for the count But a vision appears to light up into a calm Your hair seems to fly free Yet the air is so still That its fragrance overwhelms you In the cleanliness of your soul Breathing in the hope That will elevate you into challenges For the valley which had been too dark to see From your perch on top of your solitude Had drawn you into negative magnetism Which no paths to envision And the death of your senses Had left you vulnerable To falling out of reason But the dawning of light brings in a peek of hope To unblind your mind of the selfish doubt As you see the world developing before your eyes Into all levels of sight and mind You gain the depth to expand on To create paths to walk on To take you places that only your mind Can take a fancy to So let the rainbow develop into the colors Of the mind developing the waterfalls of free spirits That will cleans this world of the sinners Who only see in the dark For with your words they will be Set on there own journeys To create their own paths To the inner beauty we all are blessed with D.Lester Young (12/26/01) Tuscaloosa, AL Copyright © D.Lester Young (White Eagle) |

Wisdom and serenity reach out a hand in your words giving steady reassurance to the one whose soul is slipping into the darkness. *gosh* I love the feel of this poem. I try to not dream or write too much darkness for then I find myself being pulled into it. Therefore, much of my work is love and fantasy...keeps hope and light burning within me. **hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

(sigh) To first understand the cdircumstances and feel the compassion from pain helps us to emerge from the darkness and to mortgage new hope and paint rainbows with our fingertips to the world in search for peace and solace! (smiles) Sooooooo wonderful, sweet friend, your words always bring light to these pages! We all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lester, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
