Inside of Me


There is a secret place inside of me.
It is quiet and graceful;
Touched by the love & light of angels.

This soft & wonderful garden
Reflects out to the world around me.
It creates the beauty in every touch,
smell, sound, feeling, and vibration.

There is always beauty to be found in everything.
First it starts in the dark quiet place inside each of us.

The Moment Of Peace...

Jorma Kaukonen with Tom Hobson - Genesis - Quah (1974)

This is a nice one..hadn't heard it in a while...

Peter Paul and Mary, 500 Miles

Lord I'm One, Lord I'm two, Lord I'm Three, Lord I'm four...Lord, I'm 500 miles from my home.

One Father



One father sits by his daughter’s bedside;
And reads a story.
One father sits beside his daughter’s hospital bed;
And provides comfort.
One father works hard all day;
And provides food and shelter.
One father teaches a child to ride his bike;
And provides support.

One Father watches it all;
And smiles.


One father beats his son until there are bruises;
And causes scars for life.
One father drinks until he no longer can differentiate between right and wrong;
And rapes his daughter.
One father abandons his son or daughter;
And leaves a hole forever.

One Father watches it all;
And a tear slips down His cheek.

What can one father do?
What kind of father are you?
Is it hard to read what one father could do?
Is it hard to see the choice is in you?

Prayer of St. Francis,(Make Me A Channel of Your Peace) sung by Angelina...

And to love as to love with all my soul...
Make me a channel of your peace..

This is beautiful.

Ian Brown - Sister Rose - Lyrics

Free That Girl,
The One That Glows She Knows,
She Rules The World,

Free That Girl,
The One That Glows She Knows,
She Rules The World,

She Said Call Me Sister Rose,
I’m At War With All These Posers And These Frauds,
I Want ‘Em Out,
Let Freedom Reign,
Let Hope Stand Firm On Fields Of Doubt,

Then She Led Me By The Hand,
And Took Me To The Promised Land,

Free That Girl, The One That Knows She Glows, She Rules The World,

She Said I’m Just Like A Rose,
I’m Beautiful And I Can Hurt You With My Thorns,
Don’t Squeeze Too Tight,
‘Cos I Can Blow Up In Ya Face Like Dynamite,

She Said Call Me Sister Rose,
I’m At War With All These Posers And These Frauds,
I Want ‘Em Out,
Let Freedom Reign,
Let Hope Stand Firm On Fields Of Doubt,

Then She Said Take Me By The Hand,
As I Can Lead You To The Promised Land,

She Said I’m Just Like A Rose,
I’m Beautiful And I Can Hurt You With My Thorns,
Don’t Squeeze Too Tight,
‘Cos I Can Blow Up In Ya Face Like Dynamite,

She Said I’m Just Like A Rose,
I’m Beautiful And I Can Hurt You With My Thorns,
Don’t Squeeze Too Tight,
‘Cos I Can Blow Up In Ya Face Like Dynamite,

Van Morrison - In The Garden

This song means something to me. I don't share it a lot and haven't listened to it in a while... but it came up today..

In the garden...

Carly Simon - You're So Vain

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht...

You had one eye in the mirror...

3,5,1,0

 


Into the room,
So small she lay;
Silent, sleeping, fragile;
Upon Waking;
The pain and torment in her eyes
“5 Times” She said,
This is the 5th,
“I thought I wouldn’t make it”.
3 months, 5 times,
3 months,
5 times
1 life.
No.
0.
