As soon as I was born and now I am retired Sweet memories I fondly find from when I was a child I had only hoped to see a land Were I didn’t fear my fellow man Were men of only child mind could see its special shores Were we forgot the wanting more And sitting on a throne of thorns So piercing to a gentle heart That only cursed the sudden start So weeping mothers stop their crying To witness scores of child play for their children are not needed for their dying We all would wander aimlessly along a path so sweetly made with care And I with all my friends would go to find a home Worth finding to be free, it may not ever be But it’s surly worth the searching for And much like all the civil nations The clouds are always changin’ Till they’re burned or rained away And with such heavy rains New clouds are made again But sadly this is so that no cloud has far to be going And the only hope it has is if its flowing takes it far And that the newer clouds will make a steady rain A rain that you’ll remember till the ending of your days For it was pouring soft and slowly Many say the storms are harsh indeed Yet never see its power An ever-changing world and many see it sour I only see it plane as every single hour And yet the blooming of a flower changes everything I see and as new it comes to me A world that's worth living Were all sins will be forgiven And all men are searching hard for what’s worth searching for [This message has been edited by themute (06-28-2006 11:11 PM).] |

We all would wander aimlessly along a path so sweetly made with care And I with all my friends would go to find a home Worth finding to be free, it may not ever be But it’s surly worth the searching for AMEN!!!! Many say the storms are harsh indeed Yet never see its power An ever-changing world and many see it sour I only see it plane as every single hour And yet the blooming of a flower changes everything I see and as new it comes to me A world that's worth living Were all sins will be forgiven This was so full of greatness, wise words, incredible imagry and mind changing emotion, sort of like driving down the highway, wondering about going left or right, but then, slowing down, pulling over and looking at what is right in front of you... amazing write |
