The wind carries the echoes of creation throughout the land,<\/span><\/p>\n

A detoxification of earth has begun with another war at hand,<\/span><\/p>\n

I breathe deep to absorb the essence of Mother Earth inside,<\/span><\/p>\n

How many times I wonder has our Karma Master tearfully cried,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I’ve crawled the green of earth with weapon in hand too often,<\/span><\/p>\n

Experienced first hand how our world can suddenly soften,<\/span><\/p>\n

No matter where I’ve been I’ve thought of you through the day,<\/span><\/p>\n

Wondering how you were and what you were doing along the way,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Heard birds sing songs so beautiful that intense emotion was felt,<\/span><\/p>\n

Songs so melodic that words formed causing hard hearts to melt,<\/span><\/p>\n

Again I thought of you, each beautiful moment I experience is of you,<\/span><\/p>\n

Of you I am, of you my heart beats, for you forever my heart beats true,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The intensity of my hardships have been felt deep for so very long,<\/span><\/p>\n

Without you I am of the weak, meek and weak through, I don’t belong,<\/span><\/p>\n

Cry for me I pray, I need but a word, a whisper of air will bring relief,<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh but for word, any word from home would bring with it new belief,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It seems as if the anchor of an enormous ship has been cast overboard,<\/span><\/p>\n

Attached at my waist with links of hard steel pulling me from shipboard,<\/span><\/p>\n

As I sink into the deep abyss I search for light, a light of encouragement,<\/span><\/p>\n

Sea creatures scurry about yet the sea scurry adds to my bewilderment,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is this abyss a reality or a realm dimension known of as sleep or escape,<\/span><\/p>\n

Can escape halt reality, is it possible to escape wars wrath in good shape,<\/span><\/p>\n

Impossible would be suitable for such question of misguided innocence,<\/span><\/p>\n

How of you I seek and pray, through you I escape hell’s painful vengeance,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let my eyes find sleep as your beautiful innocence enters slumberland,<\/span><\/p>\n

To be sought as no other spirit of sleep’s dimension just to hold your hand,<\/span><\/p>\n

So simple is my request yet so impossible a task from where I am today,<\/span><\/p>\n

Such need of heart is never simple for a broken heart is but a minute away.<\/span><\/p>\n

The end. By Pat<\/span><\/p>\n
