[hometext] => We Were Safe in his Shadow
[bodytext] => To Norm, who was always his own. Silent beacon in the night; searching for a glimpse of light. Peering through the murky gloom; warm within your outward tomb. Ever faithful amber beam; Halo of a lover’s dream. Stony walls of courage made; Mortared by the debts you’ve paid. Stand alone against each storm; Flickering solitary form; Weathered scars etch out the toll; Yet safe within your silent soul; Untouched by all the dark you’ve seen; Your hopes and trust burn on serene. Keeping lit tomorrow’s fires; Guardian of my child’s desires; I’ll keep watch with you tonight; And chase my dreams beneath your light; Until there are no storms to face; Your arms will be my resting place. 1970 [comments] => 3 [counter] => 106 [topic] => 55 [informant] => softerware [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )
