Coronation Blues

Here comes another 
king(his name is Judo King)
    walking towards his 
   throne
 he awaits the 
    touch of his queen
    which will cause 
him to glow tonight
for itself
The lords and ladies
   of this land
know the score
   by now
We're all noble
From the lowest 
    to the highest
We have been created for a purpose
   This purpose may 
    not be known to 
us
But underneath the veil
We carry beams 
of starlight
We glow with the joy of exsistence
Everyone has 
a part to play
From a small child 
To aging patriarchs and monarchs
 The dreams with 
which we began
Will continue 
onward through the 
   years of our lives

Matthew this is beautiful. I am writing that book down Kristin mentions too (but you know me and books, still have a pile to go!). You share a golden secret that I believe and know is true. Wonderful to read. Love, Shar

Exactly true! We all have a purpose, no matter where we fall on the ladder, and we are all stars, literally. Have you ever read the book, 'The Power of Ten'? If not, you MUST. You would love it as it proves we are all the universe - through skin, down down down the photos go until it comes to the stars/universe.... Read it! Love Kristin
