From a balcony of dreams that never rest the changing guard of time Heaven splits before thee, into colored swells wailed haunting chime To forge forgiving walls sent skyward, passages that proudly rise before the sun Without a hammer or a saw to see the cut and rubble blooms forever to be won To foster dawn, bequeathed in brush of gentle change and rock to rivers With hands by two, the past laid waste a revelation arrows bright in quivers To seek thy cast before thy endearing swells of favored overcast My past seeketh the laden foundations before this rainbows pass. To impart my fortunes upon the everlasting fortification to my ascending destiny And plum the deliverance of the fortitude and grandeur of the coming sanctity To seek out thy souls whisper to discern thy rights from thy wrongs There shall be no shadows to persevere over thine beating hearts song. Thy skies exhibit elements set least and lingered pulse so proud Excavated from the catacombs a song so hailed and blessed out loud Was a song that reined from a coming of virtues by summoned spirits of a noble past That dispelled the wrongful deeds and commuted man's spirit from evils crusading wrath Then by two as by one the best is done, in castles risen to the sun. I dedicated my will and obedience eternally to both the father and the son. Copyright Ravenwolfvoyager/ThisDiamond 1/24/04 |

(tears fall down my cheeks) God Bless You, my both, my Cherokee ancestors and friends will be deeply humbled by these deep wods, as obviously many can't begin to delve the euphemisms of the tears and angst so many felt through exodus and silence and this is a compassionate velvet glove poem that can relate to many! (big angel hugs) Yay, I love this, we all love you both so much! You have such beautiful hearts, sweet Kathleen and Ravenwolfvoyager, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you both! Love, Noah Eaton "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 |

Kathleen and Jeff, this is beautiful!!!! You both know that I am a very big fan of each of you, and I have got to keep this one. I hope you don't mind. By the way, with most duets I can tell who writes which part, but this blended so perfectly that I couldn't just from reading it. I would have to study it. LOL I think I'll just enjoy it as is. LOL Thank you both for sharing this masterpiesce with us!! And hugs to you both, Ethel |
