How and What How loud must the bells toll? To cloud the weather of the soul How hard must the rain beat? To wash the grime upon your feet What visions in the light Can change the course of mental sight What dreams within the mind? Can set a path that you can find What ache within your heart? Can censure all the things you start What change within your birth? Can save this garden mother earth How long must humans live To learn the lesson of forgive How long to end the goal The maturation of the soul Will the forging of our steel Ever give to us the real |

What ache within your heart? Can censure all the things you start What change within your birth? Can save this garden mother earth Oh, you test our minds once again dear Seymour. Such questions I suppose will not be answered truly, until we ourselves depart. Now where is my sister with the tea? Blueberry muffins are ready. hugs, Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

What ache within your heart? Can censure all the things you start Seymour, I don't know the answer, but I sure do wish this stupid ache that makes me "censure all the things I start", would just disappear. You know, though, the ache is getting dimmer every day, I think. Maybe real soon it will be gone completely and I can get on with the rest of my life with my Honey-love. I don't really believe he would ever treat me the same way the one who put the ache there treated me.....and that person is gone now, so I don't have to worry about him hurting me ever again. Goodness, my friend, that one little part got this brain to working this morning. LOL A very excellent, thought-provoking write, as always. Thank you, Sir. Hugs Ethel |

How long must humans live To learn the lesson of forgive How long to end the goal The maturation of the soul To forgive is to love and let go of our past mistakes. Thank you for the gentle reminder that life is much too short to harbor grudges. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this~ Thank you Sy~ |

(big hugggsssssss) I have no clue, but as long as politicians are cowards and what our fathers used to say keeps getting ignored and these varying definitions of freedom and other words are made, it will remain as thus! (sad sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, you speak with much wisdom, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
