For This
What is love to me, my angels asked
I answered, your eyes in my heart
Shining bright upon the drinking flowers
I watered and listened
To the voices in my mind
And they came like sunlight
The waves I am
Blessing me with the softness of your face
I peeled back the day then
The greenery and cedar grand
Bowed in recognition
Of what I held inside
The joy
The hope
The invention of me, reborn
All stood back, the heaven’s cloud
And asked, as one
Are you certain
Is all worth
This
I stood there then
In quiet
My view slowly shifting
Reality a game
And I answered aloud
In the way a soul speaks from beneath
I answered
Yes
All is worth this
And the questions came:
And what of pain
Shall you hurt
For this
Shall you turn from your very wishes
Shall you sacrifice
For one moment
For one chance
And I sang
As the raven to her love
But for a moment
I would give my life
But for a moment
I would change eternity
And the unity spoke again
Questioning my faith
My desire
And you would alter everything
For this
They asked
Change your world
For this
And I answered with a tear
Yes, the silence said
There is no love
Without his embrace

Loved Your poem
but i gotta tell
u
Walking with my dog this morning
i met a little boy and his grandmother
she was bringing him to daycare
he was crying as he was walking hand in hand with her
i asked his grandmother if he was ok
She said they just found out he was just diagnosed with Asp… sorry can’t spell this morning
i am too touched by what i heard and saw …..
He is 4 and hasn’t spoken yet
only lots of crying and body language that spoke FEAR
only FEAR
which was sad to feel ….
But he already knew how to read !!!!!!!
and spent hours and hours with books
His Grandmother said that His Mother was very very strong
but she – the gramma was very emotional about what they just found out ……
I talked to her for 20 minutes or so
about what i had learned through YOU ……….
and it seemed to soothe her – even for that little period of time ….
She was crying by the end in happiness – kinda like that Hopeful Happiness – you know those kind of tears ?
anyways
Thank You Sam for being a great Source to me ………..
Because if it weren’t for You
i would of not known what to say ……..
or how to soothe
Love you very much
and ………..
I am sure i will see this little boy and his Grandmother more and more
They live in the same building that i do
So THANK YOU XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
love xoxoxo
