fear not, Quiet One
for though the Shadows fall
there is still One in the sky
who shows you the way
Her voice has been known to you
since before your being took form
She sang to you when you entered life
and has led you from path to path
with words that only the heart could know
       words that you sang back to Her in your own voice

fear not, Quiet One
the Shadows are falling again
but yet, She is still there
with open arms and healing voice
giving to you the strength and vision
that you need to see through the Shadows
so that your life may be found once more
and that you might again follow the path
the path that only is known to your soul
       and that only you can walk down today

fear not, Quiet One
for Her voice sings now anew
stronger and fuller above the Shadows
leading you again
     by the hand
          and by the heart
to the You that is Love and Life




Note: I don't usually post more than one poem a day, but this one just wouldn't let go.  Much prayers and thoughts go out to Nightshade.  Thank you.

(tears fall down my cheeks) God Bless You, sweet friend, I know Chris and Nancy will both be touched so so much by this and I know that with your words of faith she will fly again with love and a smile like always! (BIG HUGGGSSSSSS) You are a true angel of words, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sven, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Oh what a lovely poem for Chris, Sven...
I am sure she will love it.
I am so impressed by the way this Passions family is always there for each other...
You were all there for me and now we are all there for Chris...

Sven,
When the tears flow so easily
one would think the words would also.
Not so this time my friend.
How do I thank you for such a beautiful heartfelt write dedicatd to my sister Chris?
I can't, as there are no words powerful enough to say what I am feeling in my heart, for the words you have penned here.

I will be printing out this poem, and thread, along with the others...
knowing that this will help Chris/Nightshade to realize how much she is loved and missed here by her family at Passions.

Sven...I am so thankful 'this one just wouldn't let go'.

Namaste.

I would rather have one breath of his hair,
one kiss of his mouth,
one touch of his hand
than an eternity without it.
