INTIMATE RIVER (The Gift Of Love) Emotions spoken in the Intimate River Dance from the oceans to the mountains And back again Touching Tasting Caressing the smoky gray clouds And blue diamond daydreams That cradle and nurse the child of tomorrow At the breast of today's wide open thirsting Grasping for the power, grace and fertility That spew   wildly - forged by the thousand fires That pour down from the mouth of eternity   Pulsing Shimmering Bursting out in one song Sung by the multitude of voices With praise unending and cups uplifted Hailing the ALL'S Intimate River Bowing down and asking Begging Crying Laughing Flying in joy and sorrow Breathing in deep the universal ALL, and asking Asking not, "do you love me" But can you give me all of you Asking not, "do I love you" But are our hearts wide, wide open Are our souls truly committed To this journey of spirit Between these banks that hold fast The Intimate Waters of our Life Dedicated to    Jim Lange                               1948 to Forever Gary Lange: copyright Feb 1999
