each day she watches from the shadows
as humanity races by, and she recedes
further into her hiding place, unable
to abide the human race, of which
she is a part,but no longer her heart
we have stood by while God's grace
was stolen from us without a trace
usurped by the wily non believers
with evil intent who are a disgrace
we have allowed them to make the
beauty of darkness their own,while
we show our fear of the unknown
they abscond with what is our right
while we give up without a fight, and
slip away quietly into our night,waiting
for the fearless one,who will save us
You know, Eileen, it does seem like society is waiting for a savior of sorts. I think this general feeling is part of why Obama was chosen. He was making promises of change, and we all feel as though we need that change to survive. Great poem of our times. Love and Hugs,

Eileen, this is a tremendously powerful insight into the sociopolitical plight of a great nation -- you've said it with passion and deep concern - too many languished too long -- now that liberty is almost gone -- the fearless must wrest the soul from the beast -- peace and love my dear friend -- Jon Michael
This is most sensitive and intuitive of what surrounds us today, but the fearless one will have to be each one of us, that is our test, let's see if we'll survive it, not here but in the paradise we are preparing for ourselves, otherwise we'll be damned to this hell forever, and the longer we wait, the more hell is created, I think this is what Jesus meant, when HE said follow me, and do as I do. We have to be active every moment, even just for ourselves, and all those wonderful people so deserving still. HUGS!!!!!!!! Jasmin Horst
Very introspective poem, we all go through with these, we cower in silence rather than speak, compromising what is right for the sake of
peace and tolerance, only to lose both in the end ..."she recedes further into her hiding place..."
shadow selves indeed roam rampart, however to wait for a savior is relinquishing of one's power. It is the self, us, me, you that has the light to succeed. God's strength works through you, not seperate from you :)
I hope you are NOT right with regards our "civilization" as it stands. Doesn't He tell us we have to do for ourselves as well as rely in some part on Him...keep fighting the fight for good, dear lady...Ed & rufuz

further into her hiding place, unable

Truly sad what we have now become, and one of the reasons I now spend far more time with animals than humans.
