What I Can’t I cannot stand the thought of death It takes away my very breath It throws a shroud my field of seem And dims the light of what I dream And dream I must to dull the ache To stop the pain that rues my wake The fantasy of rainbows walks The ecstasy of lovers talk It clips the wings on which I fly It turns the sky to darker vie It blows a sand storm full of grime That grinds you up in age and time It brings my dance to slower pace And fades the rose upon her lace It dims the vision of desire Gone illusions of admire It is the winter after fall It is the snow that covers all. |

Winter is great when it is becoming very hot, like here in Australia. Snow I dont think I could bare though a gentle inbetween would be nice. |

Ah, yes. I understand. There is a difference! Death itself is not to be feared ~ but the process in getting there can be the pits! When our time comes to go back Home, let's hope God just beams us up! ~ Okay, Scotty?!? Love & Eternal Light, EA |
