Psalm

Some walk through the Valley

in the shadow of Death;

their cries his siren call

Better dance in the Meadow,

in the sunshine of Life,

where the dark cannot touch you at all

Better dance in the Meadow,
in the sunshine of Life,
where the dark cannot touch you at all

An inspiring, spiritual piece. Alas many are still trying to find that meadow, not realizing it lies within.

[Rita L. Sev]

Amen to that, Pryde. Thank you.

[Michael G. Smith]

Very inspiring; a lesson I've learned. What do you think if fifth line said "Better to dance in the meadow"?

[Rita L. Sev]

I played with that line too, Mike. I opted to omit the extra syllable for the flow I was going for. Thank you for reading and offering your suggestions, which I value highly!

[Cassie]

yah yah...thank you for sending this message...

[Rita L. Sev]

:) Thanks, Cassie - hope you are enjoying married life, and dancing in the meadow with a partner!

[Lyn Anderson]

A lovely, wise and thoughtful verse.

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you, KL. :)

[Marie]

Good advice...stay out of the shadows.

[Rita L. Sev]

Yes indeed... it's warmer in the sunshine... Thank you, Marie.

[Frieda P]

Sheer perfection Rita....so few words that really does speak volumes. You need to write a book of Ritaisms...! ;-)

[Rita L. Sev]

:) What a silly, fun volume that would be! Thank you, Frieda!

[Frieda P]

Yep, let me know when you do, I'll be first in line! :-)

[Baby Ricochet]

I'll take a sunny meadow over the valley of death any day.

[Rita L. Sev]

Amen... Thanks, Mark.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this is so good Rita..

some really do dance in the dark...we need to find that Meadow...and stop living for the dark drama of it all.

[Rita L. Sev]

I walked away from the dark long ago... had to leave some behind in it, but that was their choice. The Meadow is much better, and has plenty of room... Thank you, Jacob.

[Cory Barrett]

Do you think we could change that prayer to this?

[Rita L. Sev]

I pray only positives... and I am always heard. :)
