And the Earth Cried

Reaching deep through broken sleep I travel to a realm where the shooting stars streak Across desert sands, where rivers weep And wander thru the caverns the angels keep And the Earth cried An eagle sighs, while mother earth cries The wolf cub sees the future, In his mothers eyes, And the doves love song becomes a desperate cry And the Earth cried Willows gasp for air, in this smokey lair Crickets quit singing their midnight fare Man turns a blind eye, like he doesnt care, Falling headlong in the devils snare Acting like he was never aware. And the Earth cried.

Truly acceptable statement of the way things are. There is nothing at all radical in what you say.... and you say it beautifully... Well done, my friend... Jake
