Analysis of My Journey Has Just Begun
Rusty SA Taylor 1954 (California)
Though life for me on Mother Earth is
through, there is much I need to do. The Great
One called me to his side, his wishes I will
abide. He will help remove the pain from your
hearts, it was time for us to part. I send my
tears so the flowers will grow. I send my
eyes so the stars will glow. Know my children
I loved you, I was proud to watch you grow.
Love me enough to let me go. Watch for me in
the spring as the flowers grow. See me in the
summer as the warm sun glows. Watch for me in
winter, as I twinkle in the sky, or when like
the moon I rise. I will be everywhere,
helping the Great One shed despair, giving
hope to those that need a dream, those that
the world has forgotten it would seem. My
children, it is OK to miss me for a while, but
know the Great One calls me to his Isle to
create the path for ones who have lost their
smile, who need a hand through life's trial.
