New Songs of Light

We walk down paths previously untrod Dancing lightly on the earth we come to the conclusion that the dark angel has decided to leave us in peace So, for a little while we'll beat back the savage winds of winter By moving towards warmer ground Like flocks of migrating bird We seek peace We also seek Something called JOY -We have not forgotten that And we never will

A well-written, thought provoking, very good piece of poetry, Matthew! Your words hold such truth -'JOY-We have not forgotten that and we never will' Each human heart seeks joy no matter what station of life we're in. It's my belief that we not experience true joy until we are reunited with the One from whom we came. I love this, really! Happy Thnxgiving! Peace and love, Audrey
