(I had already started writing this song three months ago, but wanted to wait until you, our angel friend Linda, returned to post it, yay! This is for you, my angel friend forever! ) Earth Angel (Co-Titled "Why There's More Than Just Heaven") By: Noah Eaton (Started 11/17/03 Finalized 2/20/04) Alabaster skin, more perfect than a dresden doll, singing with tourmaline whales, swimming in fields of poinsettia, her heart's worn out like the Star of Bethlehem, leading children through the Door of Illumination, for she sees children as white casablanca lilies, kissed in the sunbeam rain... Faith don't need to move mountains, hope don't need no prophesy, love don't need no philosophy, when I look through the eyes of an angel, showing me why there's more than just heaven... "No other virtue makes man more equal to the angels, than the imitation of their way of life." And friends are angels who liftus back on our feet, when our wings forget how to fly. Give yourself permission to believe, rise above the surface of the sky with moonstone dolphins, heaven is there where the green grass grows, cause every blade of grass is guided by an angel lullaby... Faith don't need to move mountains, hope don't need no prophesy, love don't need no philosophy, when I look through the eyes of an angel, showing me why there's more than just heaven... Your breath is the holy wind, cosseting the Earth with your authentic voice, there the harvest moon's looming, listen to the children learning to sing... Faith don't need to move mountains, hope don't need no prophesy, love don't need no philosophy, when I look through the eyes of an angel, showing me why there's more than just heaven... That's why more than just heaven, you've brought heaven upon the Earth... "You'll find something that's enough to keep you But if the bright lights don't receive you You should turn yourself around and come back home" MB20 |

Noah, Noah, Noah! What a phenomenally beautiful present you have blessed me with. Dear Angel Boy, you not only have the presence and voice of an angel, you ARE an angel. Our friendship has meant so much to me and I have missed you while I have been in hospital. You grace those of us who are privileged to read this fine piece of writing--and everything else that you have given us. I have already saved this to my special file of poetry that has been written for me by my friends and fellow Pipsters. Thank you from the bottom on my new heart! You are beyond special to me! Love, Linda Earth Angel |

"Give yourself permission to believe" You've certainly given us all that. This is such a beautiful piece. Your deepest emotions shone through! You have a big heart, and you are not afraid to share it ^*Kim*^ "Theres no posession, just obsession and growing depression" |

Noah, I just realized that the last graphic in this post is indeed the painting entitled "Earth Angel"! For me, that adds even more meaning to your poem/song "Earth Angel"!!! Again I'd like to thank you for your generosity of spirit and caring, talented ways! Loving hugs, EA |

Noah, it's mainly because of your kind words I continued with PIP when I came here a month ago. You are full of wisdom, sincerity and compassion-- and you are dedicated to PIP. God bless you! Grover. |

Beautiful. It is beauty like this that keeps me addicted to Passions. Thank you, all, for being in my life. |

When one angel sings to another, the result is bound to be heavenly. *S* This is just beautiful, M'toe... I especially like the chorus. *S* Thank you for such a lovely welcome back to such a lovely member of our family. *S* |

Noah, last evening I read the lyrics to another friend and he had me read it out two more times! He absolutely LOVED it! He was blown away by your talent and the richness of your imagery!!! ~ and was very pleased that you had honored me this way! Thank you again for this treasure! I also enjoyed reading the warm replies that it has received! Big, warm hugs to you and our friends! Love, EA |
