eyes of heaven cry, cleansing waters thirsty land for understanding














warrior spirit broken, blood stained land, death hovering , darkness rises
north wind blows chill fills the night air, snow blankets a sleeping land
reality stolen, lost moments ticking hands dark times, hidden dreams
weary souls long twisting journey, destination unknown to mankind
hope silent prayers, reaching arteries in waiting hearts, healing begins

    really cool lines...i would not mind some snow...
    the reality stolen/hidden dreams bookends that one nicely
    the weary souls/yes mankind might not know but someone does
    and someone will. smiles.

    "...destination unknown" I think about that sometimes, that at least we know it will be pretty nice--in the end. Odd that "healing begins with prayer"--when prayer often is last rememdy we think about.
    Truedessa, you truly on the mark here, good story told with seventeens!

    Destination is really unknown. Very well penned.
    The hopeful end whence the healing begins is beautifully written.

    Through all the crap across the map, even yucky snow, blanketing the land below, healing can come due, but it is sure hard to push on through

      Just have to push on through
      or you might start feeling blue
      and I wouldn't want that for you..
      I do enough of that for two...

    Cool that each can stand on its own...better yet the feel of each blends together with the others to tell a bigger story. ~e:p

    These all stand alone yet come together to create almost a prayer like poem of hope. Beautifully done.

    these phrases form a whole with their unity of spirit. Ingredients for a larger poem with such a deep agenda of mood.
