"This is dedicated to all the special friends of Passions who need a special hug of compassion" Silver Lining By: Noah Eaton 7/27/02 Sweet one, look up to the sky and find that silver lining Stitched under the storm clouds where you hide Make a halo with it in your fingertips Make a tiara to wear upon your head Hire the blacksmith with no face to hammer it to shape Sweet child, you're always in good hands And we all will rise only stronger than we were before We all walk in a single-line baptized by grace once more Fear not, sweet child The light is ever so elusive Hanging like a hammock in the morning view Breaking apart like a million doves The light has diamond eyes that never slumber Walk upon your widows walk, touch a rainbow Befriend this blanket of tranquility outside your patio Dangle them from your fingers like shirts on clotheslines Coddle the light gently like pigeon peas in the summer breeze The things you buy and break don't matter anymore It is all what you believe and create that's sweet And we all will rise only stronger than we were before We all walk in a single-line baptized by grace once more Fear not, sweet child The light is ever so elusive Hanging like a hammock in the morning view Breaking apart like a million doves The light has diamond eyes that never slumber Look at your reflection in the mirror You swear that child deep inside of you is long-gone Look deep into your own eyes Take yourself by suprise and reconsider Amen, the spirit of innocence is all inside of you You were the giver, now pass it on and be the sender And we all will rise only stronger than we were before We all walk in a single-line baptized by grace once more Fear not, sweet child The light is ever so elusive Hanging like a hammock in the morning view Breaking apart like a million doves The light has diamond eyes that never slumber Never slumber... Never slumber... "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." Shakira [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (07-30-2002 01:05 PM).] |

Noah love, I don't need a hug but getting one just because is so sweet. You are such a love and a silver lining for all of us. Hugs back to you, Marti "Even if life is full of thorns, I still embrace it for I know that in between those thorns, there is a rose worth all the pain." |

When I was young my dad used to tease me be accusing my of "slumbering" in my bed. of course I didn't know what that meant but I figured it had to be something awful. He also used to tell me I had "garments". I thought that had to be some kind of disease or bugs or something. He was a very mean father. He's still very mean. |

M'toe: You give so much with all your responses... and then you give more. *S* The poem is wonderful... but what is truly great is your heart. *S* |
