SAVE A PLACE FOR ME

Save A Place For Me

When you risk the climb
To the majestic mountain top
And sit gazing at the snow covered peaks
Embracing the stillness around you
Surrounding your soul with beauty
Breathing in the freshness of pine scented air
When you do this
Please
Save a place for me
A place beside you
A place inside your heart

When you quest
For the bright orange moon
Slowing creeping up beyond naked trees
Light filtering through ice webbed branches
Skies blanketed with the splendor of
a trillion delicate twinkling stars
An electrifying feeling
Amazed
At the vastness of the universe
The glory of it all
When you do this
Please
Save a place for me
A place beside you
A place inside your heart

When you walk the sandy beaches
Listening to the roar of the ocean
Feeling the wind and the salty mists
From the sea
Brushing your cheeks
Mingling with the salt of tears
At the power of the ocean
The power of the universe
When you do this
Please
Save a place for me
A place beside you
A place within your heart

When you walk the rain swept forest
Feeling the coolness of raindrops
Upon your face
Knowing that after the rain
The rainbow breaks forth in glorious color
Bringing the sun
To warm your way
When you do this
Please
Save a place for me
A place beside you
A place inside your heart

When you travel life's journey
To the great beyond
Exploring the other side
Looking inward
Discovering the answers
To life's age old questions
You smile
Knowing
When you do this
You will save a place for me
A place beside you
A place within your heart

I love you, Thally.

For who you are and what you choose to do with that.

I know the truth and power in this universal "prayer." I've prayed it myself.

XOXOXOXOXOX

Thalia, you have a real gift.
"A place beside you
A place within your heart"
Makes me feel that universal oneness we all share within each other. Where we are connected with nature and the powers that created all things.
Thank you!

You sound so wistful for another's journey. You describe these wonders of someone else. What about your journey to the sun, your warm heart. Isn't that a delicious vision?
