Barefoot Shadows

29 April 2006


Thinking of you running barefoot
each one a passing shadow
Those eyes of beauty
how they do speak

A resting heart
a beautiful soul
sands, grasses of due
everything always
in love with you

Sweetness, sadness
bitter times and bad
This freedom, unto restless void
those things, distant mountains to seek

Happiness, happiness and more
holding hands, touching toes
Everything of your beauty to drink
God only, God only cares, cares and knows


“I know that thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be
withholden from thee. Thou hast given him his heart’s desire,
and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.”
Job 42: 2; Psalms 21: 2 KJV

What a delightful poem you have penned for our Darlin' Dixie! You have captured her essence perfectly!

Sending a warm hug and a smile to each of you!

Christopher, my...I'm quite overwhelmed by your outstanding words! Very touching.

God only. Yes, I know.

I am keeping this in my library and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a lovely poem/reply for me. I will cherish it always.

three minutes of my life, can be a lifetime of your own, in this being numbered in my book of life

maybe one of 550 poems/psalms of mine composed so far in 2006, but each one has its special place within my being

just to have listened to a whisper and obeyed my inner-voice. The spirit from within (aka the Holy Ghost if need be)
