THE CLARION CALL by Earth Angel & Mistletoe Angel ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To all the peoples of the world, Please listen one and all, To the trumpeting of Gabriel's horn --Our Father's clarion call. I give you my uninvited attention Proclaiming with hope you too will be invited I come bearing this ever exclusive calling With which your listening will for all be decisive Stop all wars and live in peace, Show love to one another, Treat ev'ry one you meet each day As your sister or your brother. We bleed the same as anyone Creed and race all bleed the same hue I beseech you, leave stereotypes behind Know we are all brothers and sisters binded by love's truth Respect the waters, land and air, Of this planet of your birth, Bring not the tears of sorrow, To your sacred Mother Earth. Complaineth not, reach to your fellow man Treat others as they treat unto yourself Give not hate but love, and turn the other cheek On those who may deny you, wish them good fortune and good health Hark the heralds as they sing, Of horizons dawning new, God sends His Love and Light to all --Not just a chosen few. Fondle your children and every child Teach them the ways and meaning of love May little boys go out and embrace the sunny day May little girls brighten every heart up There is a mass awakening As we drink in rays of Light, Basking in God's golden glow, To banish days of night From this golden trumpet I decree For every one of you of most precious blood To reach your hands up to the sky And in the name of grace spread your love. We are as one, in Father's eyes, He loves us each the same, Our souls are fragments of the Light, Of His eternal flame. ~~~~~~~ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (09-25-2002 12:27 PM).] |

Two special 'angels' have created beautiful music together. There are some really intense profound thoughts in this piece and well worth reading over and over. '...Stop all wars and live in peace, Show love to one another, Treat ev'ry one you meet each day As your sister or your brother...' If only.... Nice job Linda and Noah. Hugs, Marti |

Dear Mother Earth You warmed my heart with that reply. I would be honored, as I am sure Noah would be, to have you frame it and use it as part of your daily prayers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart----I know Noah would as well---but I don't know where he is right now. But I'm sure when he's back, he'll be adding to my thank yous. ~ sending smiles and hugs from both of us ~ Earth Angel |

Thus did the songs of two angels give the world a blessing, and a warning. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |

Wow!! This is amazing to me to see the two of you writing together like this. I want to read more and more. Your hearts are so tender, too. I feel the way you two do about the people in our world. It would be so great if everybody would try to get along, wouldn't it? I wish everybody would come across this site. I can't seem to get out the way all of you make me feel. It's like a great big family!!!! Love to you all from Ethel........garysgirl |

Noah, and Linda, I'm sorry that I did not reply sooner to this work. Thank you both for echoing my thoughts in poem. There is far too much hate in the world today, and not nearly enough love... Excellent jog, you two! *smiles* ~Tier "I shall never bond again, as I have bonded with you..." |
