Céad Míle Fáilte ~ A Hundred Thousand Welcomes!

Here we seek a rest in the shade, some cool water and a little kindness. This blog is dedicated to peace, truth, justice and a post- industrial, post-petroleum illumined world in spite of all odds against it. I very much like the line about the ancient knight (see poem below) "His helmet now shall make a hive for bees" It is reminiscent of "beating swords into ploughshares" a sentiment I heartily approve of. Thank you for visiting ~ I hope you return!

In the Arms of the Angel


Condolences and prayers and solemn remembrance to all those who sustained injury and loss of life and loved ones in the recent bad storms and natural disasters all over the Earth, especially last night in Iowa near here.







In the Arms of the Angel by Sarah McLachlan


Spend all your time waiting for that second chance


For the break that will make it ok


There's always some reason to feel


Not good enough


And it's hard at the end of the day


I need some distraction, oh beautiful release


Memories seep from my veins


They may be empty and weightless, and maybe I'll find some peace tonight


In the arms of an Angel, fly away from here


From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear


You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie


You're in the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here


So tired of the straight line, and everywhere you turn


There's vultures and thieves at your back


The storm keeps on twisting, you keep on building the lies


That you make up for all that you lack


It don't make no difference, escaping one last time


It's easier to believe


In this sweet madness, oh this glorious sadness


That brings me to my knees


In the arms of an Angel, far away from here


From this dark, cold hotel room, and the endlessness that you fear


You are pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie


In the arms of an Angel; may you find some comfort here
