[bodytext] => After burning sands in arid lands And relentless rays bathe the brave The sleepless souls who search for peace Escape the barren desert beast They come ,then, upon the coast And in the sand they write their notes Prayers that God would guide their boats Honor their dreams and keep them float Sailing through poison, opposing waves Under black, brawling skies for two hundred days Like men who risk their lives for gold The search for peace has made them bold To war in soul is worst than death They knew the edge of life and leapt And death can chase and test their breath But can not follow their final steps Onto the rock of snow and ice At the base there dwells eternal night And we walk on despite the fright Toward the snow-capped peaks and winds of might Through stinging cold, then blinding sight The promise of peace is worth the fight [comments] => 3 [counter] => 259 [topic] => 40 [informant] => Turnerp561 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 14 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => fantasy )
