CROSSING RIVER'S

CROSSING RIVER'S

Came along a bridge 
There's a man he stands 
Holds out his hands 
He says pay the river man
Not gold but silver 
Here's a dime for your time
Scared alone and lost 
Knowing this river I must cross 
Upon the fairy 
Stared behind as we came across 
What would I find 
Came to a prairie 
Somethings wrong somethings not right 
There's a road I see 
It's dark has no light 
Walked along the way 
There's another river to cross 
This time there's no man 
But a woman draped in white 
Her eyes blind has no sight 
She glows in the night 
She said you must have paid the river man silver not gold 
Come along take my hand 
I'll bring you across 
I wonder how does she know
She said child 
I know 
Just cause I'm blind 
I can see further then your mind would ever 
Your not living but dead 
The rivers are full of souls that are lost 
Who didn't pay who couldn't come across
It's hells hole can't you tell by the smell
no longer living not even alive
They cry
Come along 
Your guardian angel that's me 
I'll take you to a place you'll forever be 
Safely
Don't look down just follow me
Dont look back because that was and will never be
You are now at home many
Rivers you've crossed
Many times you have been lost 
But searched for the Lord 
You've carried your cross
Made it across 
Never alone scared are lost
Your home where you'll for ever be
You paid the river man 
Not gold but silver 
And you've found me
Come come along
And I'll bring you home.
Where God is waiting patiently

Hey CORTHEA!!....this is elegantly delivered, narratively ensconced, storytelling....... the "River Styx " comes to mind immediately..... but you've taken it into a detail that is VERY compelling...... and has a formatting that keeps the flow maintaining its compelling nature........ the imagery is VERY strong as well....... well conceived and BEAUTIFULLY delivered!!.......ALL STARS!!...... well done sweet poetess!!..... and .......WELCOME to COSMO!!..... LOVE and ROCKETS!!.....T xo.  ?
