The Sleeping Prophet

There was a world renown prophet EDGAR CAYCE was his name. His sleeping predictions , brought this man to fame. The only man ever known to predict while in a sleeping state. The accuracy of his predictions was about 88.8 . 1877- 1945 was when he was alive. He was a farmer, teacher, preacher, scholar. He would lay down and fold his hands across his stomach And close his eyes, into a deep meditation he would fly. They asked him all sorts of questions while in this state With the answers he would not hesitate. He could speak to his grandfather who had passed away. And with spirit children he did play. He had been blessed with a gift so rare That with the world he had to share. 10,000 topics he had covered. But was known mostly for the cures For sicknesses of all sorts And the medications were all store bought. Five main topics which he covered most Came from the holy ghost Health, dreams, psychic phenomena, spiritual growth He spoke of philosophy and reincarnation And the worlds future devastations. He was a prophet beyond his time And cures which this world had never seen Goes into the pages of history.

Louis, I have written several poems about Edgar Cayce and read some of the books his son wrote about Cayce's readings. He was an amazing man. Even President Woodrow Wilson turned to Cayce for spiritual guidance when he wanted to form the League of Nations. Look up Soup member Don Johnson and tell him I suggested he read this poem. We communicate about Cayce often. Johnson has a similar gift! He'll love this one as much as I do. Also, I returned your Soup mail. Love, Carolyn
