Can You Hear The bells of heaven toll in vain For all the souls were lost in pain Each flight of egos light and burn Winging o’er the lamp of learn The use of force in salad toss Have burnt the fields to charred remorse And poisoned elements of endure With the venom of false allure Chaos lifts a hydras head That doubles if one cut, to dead And feeds upon the grit and grime Forever in the soul of time The quick that lifted me to light Has turned the wick to dead of night And I am lost in catacombs Of times forever pile of bones. I fly upon a butterfly The shape of which, good God is why. |

The use of force in salad toss Have burnt the fields to charred remorse And poisoned elements of endure With the venom of false allure Chaos lifts a hydras head That doubles if one cut, to dead And feeds upon the grit and grime Forever in the soul of time The quick that lifted me to light Has turned the wick to dead of night And I am lost in catacombs Of times forever pile of bones. ==================================== when I read those couplets I just wanna shout you are so cool!!! (Nope moth...thats not good enough) YOU are so COOL!!!

Good morning, Mr. T. ~ Oh, yes! I can hear! But I was saddened to hear what I heard! "The quick that lifted me to light Has turned the wick to dead of night And I am lost in catacombs Of times forever pile of bones." ~ That will never do, no sireeebob! You get that wick of yours back into the light and the live of day! I may not be a butterfly, but I do have wings! Hop aboard my back and we'll head off into the beautiful light of day and out of the dark catacombs! Loves, 'n hugs, 'n angel kisses, EA |
