I beg of thee, Lady of the night Tame thy river, running wild. Silver tears, my own shall meet Embrace the storm, as your own child. Aloft you lie, black velvet deep Diamonds delve infinity. Watchful eye, as my love doth sleep Calm the wind, the sky; retreat. Mother Earth, we beckon thee Speak to Ol' Sol, may He appear. A brand new day, a sweet release Calm your child, ease it's fear. As the river rages from the sky Listen within wisp of twig to trees. "Hushabye, my love, rest your tired mind." As prayer brings me humbly to my knees. I softly sing, as not to cry My gift to you, a lullaby. [This message has been edited by littlewing (09-18-2003 07:33 PM).] |

Wonderful! Three candles would be a good idea with this reading: white brown blue white set to the north, blue to the east, brown to the west, you to the south. ~~nmaste~~ |

well I can't answer "for them"...but I am slightly above the Maryland line and listen to their stations since I get their weather. Ocean City MD and the beaches are getting the winds and heavy rains now but they aren't supposed to see the worst of it until around midnight or 2 a.m. We get it here around 8 in the morning. It has been raining steady and we have strong winds. That's about all so far. Schools were closed in MD today and will be tomorrow here and there. By Saturday morning it should have passed us and be on its way towards Canada and Niagara Falls...if the weather predictors are correct. It is moving faster so hopefully we don't get as much rain in so short a time as NC and VA have. In MD there are around 100,000 without electricity so far. I hope for the best for everyone else in the path of Isabel. M *beautiful poem, Sue. [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (09-18-2003 09:05 PM).] |

My, my, my This is as nearly as lovely as you. No worries sweety, I'm safe at my sisters' (using her PC), Isabel has yet to make her presense fully known. But, I think that the area as a whole will bear up quite well. It's just how high the river will rise in the next couple days that's in doubt. You have mail ![]() And this gift? Stellar!
