When Life Was Something Silver waters from the reflection of a silver moon It was trimmed in midnight blue and deep in it's shade And, every time the wind would blow whispers of hope The waters would ripple in a shimmering display... Grasses grew in the shape of hourglasses in the fields And, would fall like the sands do in a matter of time And, every time they'd lean to grace the tips of the earth They'd gain their strength, once again, to climb... Trees didn't come in numerous colors of green Rather, they stood in satin auburn tones Only those trees found a beat not even the pines could find And, the leaves melted like ice when they reached below... Rain crystallized like diamonds right in the palms of your hand Light and clear for miles to be found And, if it should happen to rain beneath that silver moon Then moon beams in sequence would intensify the grounds... The sun never hung in that typical spot in the sky It was always there right along your side It was pink that blessed the clouds and this view And, riding those rainbows was so easily to do... The stars dangled in the manor of a summers eve And, not a one was too far to touch with ease Oh, they were warm to the touch but lit more then the night They gave way to swing from each one with all their light... All this and much more before sadness was found And, now I'm back to this ordinary ground All this when life was something worth living to it's extreme When sacred was so confidently seen...

"All this and much more before sadness was found And, now I'm back to this ordinary ground All this when life was something worth living to it's extreme When sacred was so confidently seen..."  (big hugggssssss) Oh Saunni, I agree, life has indeed gotten so much more uglier and cruel, but even if that's true know that much of this beauty still exists and by feeling it with your heart is the true way to captivate it! (kiss on cheek) Keep your spirits up and know there is still much beauty to behold, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!  May love and light awlays shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Rain crystallized like diamonds right in the palms of your hand Light and clear for miles to be found This is an exquisite piece of work, Saunni.  ~ warm chipmunk hugsLyra |
