On blade I balance, Delaying decisions. Let want control Or continue in fear? Epiphany evades Blood trickles from feet As options for staying In place disappear. Illumination Escorts your entrance Questions find answers By you being here. |

Robert: Thank you so much... I wasn't even sure this was a poem... but Cpat said it was... several months ago. LOL So... I finally got around to posting. *S* (Hurry isn't something I do well. *G*) Martie: I don't think I'll ever be fond of change... even when it's for the better, it's still change... and I'm good at stagnating! *G* Thank you, lady... I appreciate your kind words. *S* [This message has been edited by suthern (08-08-2003 05:20 PM).] |

Illumination Escorts your entrance Questions find answers By you being here. I love this...anytime the answer is found...whether it be what you want to hear or not...it is a good thing. I know! This week I have had a year of questions answered in truth. Not what I wanted to hear...but the answers have freed me! I can't ask for anything more. Sorry, I am rambling...but, oh yes, you made me think! Patricia |

(smiles) But at the same time you don't even need answers, when knowing that someone is there is good enough for you! (big hugggsssssss) It's just best to avoid the questioner I believe, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Suthern, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
