“……and we surrounded the enemy with HUSH!”
As Mistress Mouse, Littley Lamb, Old Crookeye, and Old Dog picked peas,
Flop-Eared Boy and Donkey flapped and flipped sighs of woe
From way out in front near raging cursin’ from enemies in th’ lees
All worrisome to healers in th’ rear feelin’ fear for Spottedy-toe.
Now Spottedy be stronger, yet quakin’ as he shadowed Croaker,
Who now belched: “Old Crowsy, ye needs take your eyes higher!
“Higher, from that Crowser Lady, higher to see which way we stroker
Away, away, away from mean ol’ beasties drivin’ pea-pickers in mire!”
“Be ye still, be ye in peace,” came a whisper from down low,so low.
“Be ye filling ye-selves up to blow a mighty HUSH,” came from the dust.
“Be ye holdin’ ye-selves encircled by the Light from that scattering blow
Of glinting rocks a tumblin’ from th’ mighty kick a’ Spottedy-crust.
“Oh, yes, sweet friends,”did now whisper Cuddles over the fields.
“Oh, yes, dear ones-with-The-One, fill up now to blow Eternal Hush
“O’er these fields and rocks and rills down to the sea of enemy yields.
“For we are healed by The Light and we are Freed by The Light.”
“Oh, meezie, oh myzie,”burped Old Croaker back up to Ugly Bird with Crow.
“We uns needs not see which way dose beasties do come up at us!”
“We uns only needs to see little more Light, little more Bright to show
How we filled with Love from The One to Blow a Major Hush on that beastie bus!”

Go on and shine more brightness on these critters. And if they’re picking peas and night catches them, they’re gonna need all the brightness from above and below.

Oh, but, Tots: remember, they have Rainbow (aka Bluesey) Fly to glitter just enough light all around them, even without kicking up glittering stones to spray up to the stars! And just wait until you see which critter is able to explain why The Big HUSH will defeat the enemy!

Sue Dreamwalker
Aug 18, 2012 @ 04:42:31
Always … It never ceases to amaze me just how infinate we all are and how entwined we are within this matrix of life.. If we but followed its path and let it flow instead of fighting it… We would see just how many more times we are all in Sync .. 🙂 Every last One xx

Its coming one happy soul at a time.. we gather daily more Light.. as the shadows have less places to hide..
granbee

I can feel you pushing light into more and more dark places, driving out those shadows, Sue!
Sue Dreamwalker
Aug 18, 2012 @ 04:55:00
Especially out of my Life Granbee.. they are finding less and less places to dwell,, as I let GO of ALL of them which held me down.. 🙂 🙂 you can tell I think… I have done some more cleansing work.. and its been Good.. xxx
granbee
Aug 18, 2012 @ 05:02:49
Exactly right to drive out all shadows from our own lives FIRST, Sue!
Sue Dreamwalker
Aug 18, 2012 @ 05:08:36
It all starts with Self.. and even I still need a Spring, Summer and Autumn ‘ spring clean’ every season.. And if we were perfect we wouldnt be here chasing shadows! 😉
But its good to know we are maybe helping others see a few of their own as we let the light flicker a little in the looking glass of self discovery.. As we Light the Wick to show the way a little..
Good night my Dear Granbee. Its late and Im up at Dawn for work.. love and light to you my spirit sister

Shining light on one’s ‘enemies’ can bring both ‘sides’ out of darkness. This episode made me think what I just read on Martin Shone’s new website:
‘Silence happens ~ because the earth needs to breathe’
granbee
Aug 28, 2012 @ 02:55:34
Yes, Martin and I often bounce off each other, especially about silence! Light for one’s enemies showers many blessings on us, you know!
