Each Night Each night I walk a midnight blue A Candle light to see me through It lights the walls within the cave But cannot light beyond the grave I see the paintings on the wall Ancient paintings ancient scrawl Ancient men that gird there bark Long before the word of mark But universal is the sight And easy read the symbols light They placed the image of their dare The needs to pay their daily fare They placed the items of the sun And tilled the ground of just begun And did their best to struggle through Their walk each night of midnight blue And now I make my mark the wall To catch new light, of light to fall |

Seymour...Enjoyed the journey back in time you painted with these wonderful words. It makes me wonder those before us must have known more than we give them credit for, cause they left their crude paintings for us to find and ponder upon. They knew we were coming...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

Each night I walk a midnight blue A Candle light to see me through It lights the walls within the cave But cannot light beyond the grave I see the paintings on the wall Ancient paintings ancient scrawl Ancient men that gird there bark Long before the word of mark But universal is the sight And easy read the symbols light ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ They placed the items of the sun And tilled the ground of just begun ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ And now I make my mark the wall To catch new light, of light to fall ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Youve written many a symbol and wisdom on these blue walls...and I am ever grateful for being so fortunate to be able to read them. *ww* |
