Forever The Pages Dear Ravyn

Post by Debbie » Fri Apr 29, 2005 12:45 pm

<center>Dear friends of the Pages.. and especially Thief...This poem came to me off and on during the day.. I ran up and down the stairs to my office..add line by line to it..
I hope you will like the poem God gave to me for such a precious soul.
I read her story in January. To those who haven't you should especially if you are thinking suicide or think life isn't good any more. Sincerly in Love Debbie Godspoetess..



Forever The Pages Dear Ravyn

God gave her new wings she took her flight,
but before she did part,
She left her tender foot prints
on many caring hearts.

If you walk down the halls,
there is wall paper in the Poetry Pages,
Stained with millions of tear drops,
from people of all ages.

Her life melted hearts,
even those which seemed made of steel,
For her story wasn’t a fairy tale,
but so devastatingly real,

Pain and suffering are found
in every precept and line of her story and poems,
Along with sadness and desperation,
and her long journey home.

Though very lengthy were her chronicles,
I had the strongest urge to read on,
To hear the heart beat of a young woman,
so weak in body, yet in spirit so strong.

My eyes would fill with tears
and stream down my face,
As I took that journey with her
in another time and place.

Her anguish and loneliness I felt,
sometimes her cries I’m sure I heard,
Along with pleading and sobbing,
though you may think this so absurd.


I viewed a precious life before me
and my mind became a movie screen,
This precious soul became so alive to me;
at times I wanted to scream.

Her character was loving and gentle,
with a heart and will to survive,
And it’s that same character of hers
that forever keeps her alive.

I never thought as I read,
I’d ever find happiness in a story so forlorn,
Until she introduced some true friends,
and when her baby girl was born.

Her journals took me,
through valleys dark to mountains high,
Put my emotions on a roller coaster,
into a type of hell and back up to the sky.

If you're one of those who believe,
life is worthless and you don’t want to go on,
Venture into the Pages of a hero’s life,
and she will prove you wrong.

I myself
related to some of her experience and pain,
But my life is perfect compared to hers;
I have no reason to complain.

No matter who you are
whether your problems seem big or small,
Read her life’s story, and you’ll soon find,
your life to be wonderful after all.

Today, I lift teary eyes
towards a sky so blue, for I can clearly see,
The woman,
once a tattered and broken bird is now soaring free.

She also dances on streets of gold,
carefree and young again,
Welcoming each new arrival,
becoming their new found friend.

She did her part, her legacy lives on
and gives hope for others in trouble too,
And help comes in the form of agencies today,
ready and waiting for you.

Today I'm grateful she shared her life story with us,
and I’ll see this dear heart one day in heaven,
The woman of many sorrows now free,
Gods sweet angel, and forever, the Poetry Pages, Dear Ravyn.
