ImmortalSoul Immortal soul, in all of time one fleeting moment have you dwelt within this aging breast of mine with all the sorrows it has felt Now fly away and take your leave for I’ll not go along with you To dust I’ll turn ’neath autumn leaf below the wet of morning dew To heaven you will swiftly sail The moons and stars to light your face You’ll travel on a moonbeam’s tail And fly the sky at moonbeams’ pace Farewell, my friend, life taught us love Perhaps you will return again To dwell within the hollows of Another tender poet’s pen Immortal soul, fly up, be gone! The time has come for us to part Now take with you to heaven’s throng The love within this broken heart Elizabeth Santos |

Have to agree with Karilea, I have grown to expect only the best from your pen, and I am never dissapointed, never! This was fantastic writing of a very painful subject. ~* Carpe' Diem *~ |
