Courage
Here is a poem / song called Courage.
I know you need so much more courage than we do and face such different conditions for hope, but I hope this brings some sense of compassion from me to you from my heart full of love. Tasha x
Courage, is that your name?
Wrap your cloak around my frame.
Stay with me don’t let me fall, fall, fall…
Back to where I was before.
Tides please wash old seeds away.
So Courage can stay with me more than one day.
You took your time, but now I got you,
I will give you all you choose.
Chorus
Times and time again, I have called to you.
Time and time again you did come.
With kisses of comfort
And words of wisdom.
Cruel winds have blown in winter-times
Kept me curled inside my home.
Where dark brown eyes lie sleeping.
Sacred, as a stone.
Light then cuts through morning windows.
To the sound of a calling bird.
I dream awake to a new day.
I watch as you Courage uncurl. Courage
Courage? Is that your name?
Hold your cloak around my frame and run
Run, run to places
I have never been before
And I will follow when you call.
Run, run, run to places
I have never seen before
And I will follow you when you call.
Chorus
Times and time again, I have called to you.
Time and time again you did come.
You brought me kisses of comfort
And words of wisdom.
Time – and time I have called to you.
To hold my trembling hand.
Carry me over the Everglades
To dance on dry land.
Carry me on to where I belong
and I will give you all you choose.
Carry me. Carry me. Carry me.
Carry me.
Carry me over the Everglades
All the way over the Everglades
To dance on dry land.
