I was an angel with singed wings I felt it all, the hurting stings Living in my own personal hell As all the hurt I caused did swell I left them there with their tears I left them echoing their jeers. I left them sadly cause I died I returned to them, did not hide. But these tattered wings still fly as this angel begins again to try to patch up the tatters and tears letting everyone know he cares My wings now strong and gold no longer torn, now sure of fold I once again am that angel too For they love me, as they I do [This message has been edited by Magnus (03-03-2002 12:43 PM).] |

Tattered wings that are healed are the best magnus, for lessons have been learned. New wings are beautiful and spotless but have not gone through the cleansing fire. We are a better person when we come through the fire. lOve this one. floria Floria |

Barry, this is a beautiful write. I sat here just now and scanned down the Open 19 page...and I see the family of Passions people coming together for J. Wesley. Something wonderful to watch! May it continue for Jimmy and all the others who write out their hurt and anger...and love, on these blue pages. ~Big hugs for you today, Nancy~ ~Time has cast a spell on you, |

  (big hugggsssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, wings can always be broken but they will always mend in time, and all angels will fly again with just even an iota of faith and love in their hearts! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!  May love and light alwyas shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Magnus darling boy this is outstanding writing, and so full of truth, for who understands the meaning of life more than an angel who has fallen. It is the fall that imparts the humanity into them. YOU have left treasure here to inspire, utterly utterly wonderful, but YOU have inspired me What can I say except this is utterly wonderful.    Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

I think sometimes the best poems I read are those that stand in tribute for a fellow poet[ess]...for who else should sing the praise of someone whose words we read, whose pain we feel, or whose soul we see fly? Well done, Magnus! He will treasure this... |
