I am posting this here a well as on the Zen thread as there have been so many different threads about pain, and how it makes you stronger. Thanks ot Rude Dawg for making me write this and for the help. Yes its true - the dirty doggy has a poetic soul
The Forging A bar of iron becomes a blade A shard of steel to shape a sword Feels the heat from burning fire To soften so the bar can bend before the blows Muscles ripple in the flicker from the flame Hammer rises, falls hard and heavy on the bar A ring that echoes from the smithy walls A bar of iron becomes a blade. A girl becomes no more a child Harsh and bitter words that strike Like angry blows and batter On a heart grown soft and tender With the fires of first and youngest love And sorrow finds a way to shape A song within her mind A girl becomes no more a child A blunt and brittle blade becomes a sword Fire and ice – the ruby red of heat The diamond shine of searing cold The harshness of the white-hot flame The water tainted with the bitterness of salt To bind the blade with subtle strength And lend a potent power to the edge A blunt and brittle blade becomes a sword An untried maid becomes a woman A cold and biting breeze Blows around an open grave Tears tainted with the bitterness of salt Trace a searing path across skin pale and cold An aching breaking heart Finds the strength to carry on An untried maid becomes a woman ------------------ There is only one kiwidoc, accept no substitutes STANDARD OPERATING PROCEEDURE www.judyhope.co.uk |

I can only imagine the melody that would go with such beautiful lyrics.
