First things first, I am so stupid; I forgot to mention that that lovely poem about angel tears was written by THE Jeremy Hartwell (that famed New Jersey Poet). I was reminded of a copyright infringement and rebuked for it, rather nicely put.
I also must add that the other poems are by Emily Dickinson and Octavo Paz. This next one is by anonymous
So stand firm, the Angel of Light still has shadows
The beautiful is a mask of the hatred that deep within flows
Tender touch and winsome words turn into to a bruising grip and hateful slurs
Where is the line where reality blurs?
The angel of light still has shadows.
Hidden danger on the paths where everyone goes.
The sparkling eyes that entranced and enticed you, now consume with an unquenchable fire.
The robe of spiders web so fine is exactly that, a snare that pulls you down into the mire.

Yes, I’m quite fond of all things sappy! I’m a hopeless romantic, seriously tho’, I would be a Disney Princess faster than you could say Jimmy Cricket (if ever given the chance) Speaking of all things sappy, I forgot to add that the video in my last post was part of an awesome CD that I’ve been listening to this week. Sarah Brightman and The London Symphony Orchestra’s Time to say Goodbye. I’m actually listening to it as I write this post. I’m just in awe of how well she and Andre seem to fit together! The way their Voices harmonize, I tend to forget it’s not really a happy love song but rather a mutual agreement/breakup song.
The Bible is full of interesting passages like this one. Complements of a another fanatical yet well meaning homeschooler. Isaiah 3:16 and 24 “The LORD said: because the daughters of Zion are haughty and walk with outstretched necks, glancing wantonly with their eyes, mincing along as they go, tinkling with their feet, Instead of perfume there will be rottenness; and instead of a belt, a rope; and instead of well set hair, baldness; and instead of a rich robe, a skirt of sackcloth; and branding instead of beauty.” There were more verses quoted but I as I try (failing most of the time) to be a sensitive and caring person I won’t share them just now.
