Once in a while the wind blows soft To help your dreams to soar aloft Life left behind by hearth and croft In only once in a while On winds of change the future's clear And nurtures gift is ever near I climb and to the future peer But only once in a while To soar above on eagle's wings And hear the wishing through their rings As rainbows beckon angel things If only once in a while To rise above without a doubt And echo back as earth gives shout To live and learn what hope's about Yet only one in a while For once in a while ere strength is gone There comes Gods grace to carry on If you can say thy will be done Much more than once in a while Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Keth darling sister of my heart and keeper of my souls song, as always you write with such skill and beauty I really found this excellent poem wonderful. The beauty of your words uplift a soul more than once in a while. Well done darling heart, exquisite writing. This poem contains some amazingly beautiful lines, the flow is utterly utterly divine, and I love it I truly do. Oh how I wish I could write like this, I can hear your heart and soul lifting onto angels wings, this is seriously good. Wonderful writing absolutely 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 read the first verses thinking of how those "once in a while"s give us the strength for all the inbetweens... though sometimes it seems they're spaced entirely too far apart. *S* And then came your last verse with the source of strength. *S* This is lovely, Kethry. *S* |

Oh Keth, This is so excellent. The rhyme scheme, the images, the clincher at the end. A true poem. A wonder. Nan |
