Blood Song of the Hunter-Gatherer |

And warm blood percolates these veins in the darkness of night And it is lust The inspiration of the human condition to find oneness And out upon the pitch of destiny to seek the mirror of the soul And become whole Bring listen to the song of the other; attuned to follow, at times to lead And it is love And out upon the sparkling of a summer sun to find affection To seek the healing touch And learn how to forgive so much The tempo of the journey written out of reach upon the stars And fever permeates the flesh and burns the ego And it is passion The fuel that drives the thirst for triumph And bring the motion and the rhythm of creation Succumb in gentle jubilation And bathe within the waters deep and still The faith of innocence resolved into the solitude of winter white And it is prayer The divination of the soul grown beautiful with time And bring the spirit of humanity To single flower from a pure calamity Copyright Kkh 2/23/02 |

(smiles) Yes, yes, it is passion that always encourages us to rise to His light and what fuels us to hold our dreams close to our heart and pray for many promising things to come to us all! (kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, your words speak so wonderfully, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kathleen, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

I was going to point out the most powerful lines and comment on them, but there got to be too many. Very good poem. You go from lust to prayer, with a lot of verve. The last line was a masterpiece in itself. Nan |
