I held a book today, which is not unusual for me. Books on dragons, elves, space, horrors, philosophy. But this book, this book I held, had a wonderment I did not expect. Printed pages feel unusual somehow, as my eyes roamed those pages, voraciously, I felt the magic of inscribed word sink into sullied soul and jaded mind. This book, this book I held today, unleashed the voices of muse and love. It captivated me as it's topic has never been able to do before. As I read the magic of this book, I thought about those voices, listened intently to their song, gleaning from them the meaning and purpose, and resolve of life. This book, this book I held today shared voices, Voices On The Web. Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. |

 (smiles) Oh JP, I do not have that book, I wish I could get a copy and I'm sure it's filled with so many wonderful poets and their poetry, long before I became part of this family! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet JP, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
