Let no heart be swayed by essence of whimsy
Let no mind be filled with a raging heat
Let reason be free both written and spoken
Let kindness rule whenever two meet.

And if I should find a world all this perfect
If a haven exists where these are not dreams
Then Lord guide my feet cross the uncounted miles
To the gate of this Eden of golden extremes.

Your name exudes the image I was trying to capture. You are just what this world is calling for, you know. Gentle Spirit. It does say it all.

Wishing you a day of peace.

You always see my meaning, and you always care.

Thank you, for now, and for then.

Refugee,

Your response is lovely. Something to expand upon. A starting point, maybe. I would love to see you do something with it, as it is just a perfect line. I will be looking.

Sandra
