Chained My soul is chained unto this ground. To fly too high is quite unsound. Adapted to this place of birth My home is here upon this earth. It is the place that gave me life A piece of land that is my fief. To care and hold and clean and tend Until my life is at an end Each piece of ground an Eden’s space To have and hold in loving grace And with each place an apple tree For you to care and oversee So tend this garden with your wife And have ye children and a life. It is foreseen each ring each chime Has meaning in each drop of time Do not covert the apple tree Its fruit has knowledge not for thee. |

Each piece of ground an Eden's space To have and hold in loving grace And with each place an apple tree For you to care and oversee So tend this garden with your wife And have ye children and a life. It is foreseen each ring each chime Has meaning in each drop of time Do not covert the apple tree Its fruit has knowledge not for thee. ========================================== If knowledge can be found in an apple... then your poetry is an ORCHARD OF WISDOM... and when you write like this...youre not chained to anything..trust me Stinky..you fly high like a lovely butterfly..now fly my sky so I can sigh(Sy) Meet ya in Eden for tea *winkiewinkie* |

Mr.T, as you have so beautifully shown us with your worthy words, your soul is not really "chained" to the ground---your soul is "safely secured" with a ribbon of grace, wisdom and love. This is a jewel, as are you!--a timeless piece of writing. ~ smiles across the miles ~ Earth Angel |

It all seems so simple when YOU say it, sy...but? Sometimes I feel like I am in a bountiful orchard--chained to a lemon tree! |
