Crossing the Silent River

silent shadows running thru the fields
Silence molds the clouds all day

silent moonlight bounces through the trees
Silence skips across the lake


...and when my heart is with you Lord
its shield breaks, Oh how it breaks
in the most tender way.


silent snow flake falling like a ghost
Silence swings low thru the gate

silent stones gather no thoughts
Silence gives my heart away

I am into the health food thing and researched that New Orleans is the fattest city. I have never been there, but it sounds like there is much natural beauty down there.popcorn daisy
