Music and Meditation Are Stairways

It' so easy to imagine that a creator would impart To all his creations a bit of himself in each heart When my soul cries out, yearning for connection to the light When words and no earthly love prove enough to console the blight Music and meditation are blessed stairways which lift me upon wings Transporting to a sacred place of worship beyond the worldly strings Where no religion, or walls of stone would affect Subliminal commune of light with light in a deeper respect ~*~

Your words transported me to another world, Annalise. Music not only soothes the soul, but is much like a "stairway" to a higher plane. Heavenly write for Dr. Ram's contest. I'm still out of town, but the fish are biting and I'm having fun. Have a blessed Easter, dear friend. Love you, Carolyn
