Welcome to "A Page that Aches..."

This title comes from the words of Neil Diamond's song "Be" from the soundtrack for the movie "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" based on the book of the same name by Richard Bach.

Lost
on a painted sky,
where the clouds are hung
for the poet's eye.
You may find him
if you may find him.

There
on a distant shore,
by the wings of dreams,
through an open door.
You may know him
if you may.

Be
as a page that aches for a word
which speaks on a theme
that is timeless,
while the sun God will make for your day.
Sing
as a song in search of a voice
that is silent
and the one God
will make for your way.

And we dance
to a whispered voice,
overheard by the soul,
undertook by the heart.
And you may know it
if you may know it.

While the sand
would become the stone
which begat the spark
turned to living bone.
Holy, Holy
Sanctus, Sanctus

Be
as a page that aches for a word
which speaks on a theme
that is timeless
while the sun God will make for your day.
Sing
as a song in search of a voice
that is silent.
And the one God
will make for your way.
