Outside a Shadows Fall I stepped outside a shadows fall Into the light of day And heard the bells that toll and call And listened what they say They sang to me in beauties rhyme A lullaby of send They sang to me of fleeting time Of passage to the end The sky was full of colored chalk The air with due with damp A rainbow offered me a walk To heaven on its ramp My senses touched the fleeting light A sight beyond compare I closed my eyes and felt the bright And made a wish of dare God grant me rest this feathered nest For I have done my very best. |

My dear Seymour, this is so very beautiful. I especially loved this part..... The sky was full of colored chalk The air with due with damp A rainbow offered me a walk To heaven on its ramp My senses touched the fleeting light A sight beyond compare I closed my eyes and felt the bright And made a wish of dare God grant me rest this feathered nest For I have done my very best. Hugs, ![]() ![]() ![]() Ethel |
