If only love alone could solve our problems--if only! But politicians and bankers don't see it that way. Where money's to be made, the rest of us can expect the worst. Yes, we should be together, but how many obstacles-sorry about this, but primarily religions-have for so long managed to separate us?
A heartfelt poem, Regis! Hope the girl comes home from the north and brings with her the rain. |

| Wonderful heart felt poem. Raven's are misunderstood; they are not the bad omens they have been made out to be but can be the joker. If a raven has crossed your path, 3 times even better, the raven is bringing magic, shapeshifting and creation into your awareness. BTW thanks for being the great friend that you have been to me....just by being there even when I disapppear for weeks, months and etc. |

You have spoken of such most eloquently and elegantly here, Regis. Thank you for sharing its effects so warmly. May you both continue to be richly blessed. xx |

Wow! What a poem! So meaningful and deep. Thanks for sharing.
When we are together with the one we love things seem to fall into place and it all seems to be the way it should be. Nothing seems wrong or bad because we are together and always have each other no matter what.
Just one thing I noticed... "that a raven calls his dark shadow passes over me" - i would say 'passing over me' instead of 'passes over me'. |
