SAVE A PRAYER FOR THE BEAUTIFUL ONE

Sun, 09/16/2018 - 16:21 -- tdooley

   My muse found me today
She walked out from the April showers
Through the rainbow haze

She heard the prayer of this lonely one
She came back for a touch of happiness and love
She brought me many more words to use
She said you know what to do

Save your prayer filled words for Christopher
Bring him peace when he wakes from his sleep
 He had so much to sayBut he sang it anywayWith a feeling in every tune that he playedThat would move the soul and touch the heartSome say it loves others say its art
Save your prayer filled words for Jammie
He walks with a style that is all he needs

Sharing words for other people to sing
Without any tears to save
They become the paisley dew on the grass of a new day
He is that one song that sings to the universe
For you and me
 Save your prayer filled words for PrinceEach and every song of compassion and peace  He had so much to singEchoing words it would bringThrough the drums, through the guitar stringsWhat is inside will never grow old
Had so much for two lifetimes maybe moreAnother song to warm the soulEven in April when it snows Save a prayer for the beautiful oneAs the soul sings another song ©Copyright Thomas Dooley 2016
