Lies The Rose We're our own hearts foundation to inner peace Ever climbing or falling to reach it's extreme Just clinging tenaciously to salvation's hands And, continually gathering dreams... We ride the tides coming in and going out Ever changing and not a one the same We learn with it's effort to give as it takes And, grow stronger with it's mighty rains... We march for satisfaction and it's gain to freedom Holding on for dear life to keep the faith Daring hope to lose grip in a moment in life Praying that our fall be our worldly escape... We dance to the breeze of forgiveness when it blows And, the burdens flee like the dust in the wind And, someone else finds the scattered but shattered remains That we find hard to recapture again... We sing the melody of life going through each day But, the real tune is yet to be heard We laugh in the uncertain kind of way Not sure if we've grasped each spoken word... We listen with only so willing ears Find fame in what we want to hear Lose reality in the awe that surrounds you and I Making clear to stay away from teary-eyed... Somewhere it exists all that's worth holding on And, in a heartbeat life plays it's everlasting song Life's like a field of flowers picking and choosing what grows Cause, in the center of it all lies the rose... Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S |

Saunni~ This is exquisite sweet poetess~ 'Somewhere it exists all that's worth holding on And, in a heartbeat life plays it's everlasting song Life's like a field of flowers picking and choosing what grows Cause, in the center of it all lies the rose...' Remarkably tender and delicately said~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
