May I come in?

For I seek shelter;
among those who might offer comfort
to a weary traveler

I seek a refuge for a battered soul,
where it might find peace and rest;
for just awhile

I seek a sanctuary free from
the grasping
choking, sufficating black clouds
of
cruelty, crassness, crudeness,
pettiness, anger, hatefulness,
ignorance, greed, arrogance
hypocrycy, and visciousness?

Might I find here
in this welcome dwelling

safety?

and an infusion of
my soul with
love? courage? kindness?
beauty? goodness?
wisdom? selflessness? humility?
tolerance and truth?

Might I find shelter here...

Please?

Love
Rainbow

Ah....the air..
so fresh!

I greedily draw in deep breaths of
love...unconditional love....and
understanding...

How delectable....

Charlotte, ah...Sweet Charlotte,
(spirit rivaling that of an angel)
offers her hand in welcome...

to a soul......thirsty for
all that has been cast away
through the years

a soul
hungry
for the return of all divine
that The Creator
provided each of us
at the beginning....

Thank you for allowing
this weary traveler
refuge....at last!

Love,
Rainbow

Cradled in the safety of
welcoming arms
- here -
in magical knowflake realms -
my soul begins it's journey back

In this oasis
it has found
A balm for it's
forlorn and frail
propensity to gloom

Desolation dissipates as
a renewal of strength
returns....
moving it forward
cautiously - one day at a time
- for I am Saturn's disciple!

Love,
Rainbow

Now I will come out of the "poet's closet" (for in reality, I shouldn't have been there in the first place)..a poet I am not....altho I LOVE words!

Here is something I was inspired to write a few years ago, when I fell totally and madly (Pisces/Scorpio) in love with a singer, and his music...

His photo will follow the poem...

TO HAL

Wrapped in a Rainbow
Spun by the magic of his song
My spirit soars
Amidst the heavenly realms
of the universe
touching joy!

His is the power to enthrall,
to captivate,
To coax into submission
A witness
to all the truth and beauty
That is his to offer

HAL KETCHUM

Love,
Rainbow

Rainbow, everything that you've written is a testament to your beautiful poetic soul...
I surely do know of whom you speak..."I Know Where Love Lives"..."Past The Point Of Rescue" *Sigh!* I've loved him since I was in my teens when he first made his appearance onto the music scene...I'm an aspiring songwriter here in the Athens Of The South. I know *sigh!* I love this city, If it only had the ocean as well, I would be in Heaven...But it does have an ocean of beautiful, creative souls.

Charlotte....you've been to my site?

There's a lot to see there...probably take you awhile to see everything!

But...you'll probably know me a little better for it....hope you enjoy....

I looked at your site too, and saw that you live in Nashville and are a songwriter...and I then KNEW we had a connection...I'm not a songwriter, but my sister and I used to sing country music MANY moons ago..and have been to Nashville many times...trying for that really BIG BREAK that never came along....but we still existed in the music world of the "not so bigs" and it was a fun time in our lives..........and I started out singing with my auntie who was an Aries and who's name was CHARLOTTE...one of my favorite aunts.........so there was another "connection."

You are so young, and we did so much of this before you even born.....the Opry was then broadcast from the Ryman Auditorium....and we never made an appearance on the Opry, but we did get to sing on the Ernest Tubb Record Shop Midnight Jamboree, and on a WSM radio broadcast called Breakfast at the Opry, and also appeared on a TV show in WSIX...and Ralph Emery interviewd us on WSM radio when he was a disc jockey there...in our "heyday." I always hated leaving Nashville, when it was time to go, cuz it was our "dream city." *sigh* Oooh the memories!

It's a whole new scene now, and the last time I was there was in l996 and it was at a fan club party for Hal...and there were many changes then...

Anywho....

I have Venus is Pisces too (as well as my Moon), and Hal has Mercury in Pisces.

...and I came to this thread to "hide" (it's
that Pisces thing)......cuz I was taking a "brutal beating" over on another thread for my political beliefs...*sigh*...hence my beginning posts...and it did feel safe and loving here....I'm so glad I came....

Love,
Rainbow

I tried to leave you a message in your guest book, but it wouldn't let me. I was going to give you my e-mail Addy. I think that Radall would give it to you, If you ask him. He can read this post to know that it is with my consent. I fell in love with your site! I could spend hours in there...Pisces in me...LOL
I'm so glad that you came here to hide, I may have never had the chance to know you.
I believe that we do have a cool! connection and am looking forward to our new friendship. There are so many wonderful people here at Lindland...

Your welcome Mirage. After she passed , they deleted her site so all the x`s are her pictures stored on it. She designed them.

So sorry to hear that she passed...
Such an amazing soul.

Is there a story associated with that?

She left treasure here for us.
Again, thanks for *bump*.
