?Waters of Life?

Music of the ethereal plane
talk to me from in my dreams
I seek thy wisdom of the ages
I Seek the knowledge you bring to me

Voices from a thousand years
come and tell your endless tale
For 'tis to you I lend my ears
to hear the music in your veil

As the draw of moth to flame
In the darkest black it seems
Lost between the empty pages
Through the lace, 'tis this I see

Through my smiles, and my tears
To worlds I journey on full sail
Off to realms beyond my fears
Within a world where evils fail

Ancient memories know my name
Those with knowledge of old things
I need no council from the sages
The wise ones bring their words to me

Lost within a million years
Found again on rocky trail
Among strange friends and lonely peers
There's only me, wand'ring the dale

In the dark, I see the light
Through the waters of life I glide
Seeking wisdom sung to me
Over seas and endless tide


-- Anthony Creech

Nope, can't say any of that sounds familiar. I was in college in Y2K.

Here is something i got from another group. Hope you all enjoy it.

CELTIC BLESSING OF THE NINE ELEMENTS

May you go forth under
the strength of heaven,
under the light of sun,
under the radiance of the moon.

May you go forth with
the splendor of fire, with
the speed of lightening.
with the swiftness of wind.

May you go forth supported
by the depth of the sea,
by the stability of earth,
by the firmness of rock.

May you be surrounded and
encircled, with the
protection of the
nine elements.

Beautiful poem Anthony.

I'm going to read it again when I have the opportunity to savor it to get the full effect. I imagine it will reveal a bit more of itself to me with each reading.

Borne on the Wings of Angels





When one feels calm

Calm as a summer breeze

Could it be that he is lifted by the wings of angels?

Lifted away,

Away from this world of sin and hatred in which we live

To a place

Where evil cannot reach

To a place

Where peace is perpetually known,

Where thought is free to roam--

Without the constraints of a physical environment.

Where one is free,

Free to be

And only be.

Without schedules, without deadlines.

Where time is not important.

Somewhere, somewhere up there.

Somewhere between Heaven and Earth,

Not too far from Heaven

Not too far from this physical world.

A place that the spirit goes

When Borne on the wings of Angels.



© 2000 Anthony Creech






The kind words are much appreciated =) Interesting to discover that my second post after registering has finally generated some relivant replies. Thank you

Aaediwen, these two poems are beautiful!


In Waters of Life I particularly like the following,

"I seek thy wisdom of the ages"

"Lost between the empty pages
Through the lace, 'tis this I see"

"To worlds I journey on full sail
Off to realms beyond my fears"

"In the dark, I see the light
Through the waters of life"

It is a poem full of courage.


In your second work, Borne on the Wings of Angels I like the question,

"Could it be that he is lifted by the wings of angels?"

This is very nice; the reaction of a poet's heart.

"Where thought is free to roam--"

How we love to have thought be free to roam without the within.


Share more of such works, Aaediwen.

Thank you.

Cordially,

Castlehigh of Éire

Sorry Angel Whitefang that it took me so long to answer you back. I work rotating shifts so I cant get on as often as I like. The nine celtic blessings came from one of my groups i am a member of. Celtic Ancestral Pages. They have quite a few things along poems and learning processes.

Angel: Chalk it up to wierd schedules. It's about to change again... to something a little more sane... maybe.

Wonder if anyone wil pick up on what (song) was stuck in my head as I wrote this one.

"The Awakening Mind"

In a world
A world alone
Where the darkness comes
And you're never home
See - - The light in time
Through - - the mists so fine

There
Through the darkest gray
A point so fine
Never sure it's there
Yet it shines
Shines in the dark

Through the night
Shines a shaft of day
Bringing words of joy
Relays its storied ways
For all to see
So all can read

The flow
Of peace and calm
Lights up the night
Wash away the storm
As the darkness fades
To make way... for a new age

The flood
Leaving shadows soft
A new day begins
Making all the past
Just - - a memory
A distant memory

Pure
As the clearest day
The divine time is now
Say what you want to say
Thought is unhindered
We're all free -- -- --
All are free
To be
