Faith Unearthed
The bones of an Angel - the bones of a Saint,
barely enough for the Artist to paint
Guided by innocents - Discovered by chance,
could not be embellished could not be enhanced
we argue the Truth while ignoring the facts,
blinded by fear rather than follow the tracks
Found in the earth and written in books,
we've seen in the past - we know how it looks
still hidden so deep in the mysteries of time,
what guides our thoughts, makes up our mind
Why do we wonder when it has been said,
"the proof of life is left by the dead"
while in their hearts some feel the same,
after two thousand years the faith still remains
The bones of an Angel - the bones of a Saint,
barely enough for the Artist to paint

Thank you Gabriel, I have worked at a few chords on my old Gibson. I has a fairly easy rhyme progression.

Wow. Well said. Was this inspired by an episode on discovery channel or a new article perhaps?
I love watching documentaries on the unknown.

Thank you AH2 and Thank you all, to be honest I can't remember where this came from. Maybe from some paleontologist discovery on some program, maybe a dream of my own imagination induced sleeping entertainment or even a combo. of all the above.
I have vivid dreams/nightmares,so I keep my I Phone beside my bed every night and try to take notes, at least what I can remember.
People tend to draw lines on some subjects and I enjoy rattling cages on both sides. As in "Farmer God", Drinking Problems, Substance Abuse, any subject where a Non-expert is needed to stir the pot.

Thank you, domore, We have all seen the depictions of the dinosaurs created from bones, then the debates between creation and evolution. I could not help but imagine the discovery of humanoid type bones found with wing structured framework along with some Saint he/she may have been taking back to Heaven.
Thanks again,

Reminds me of what I heard today on a guided tour by an archaeologist around an old town in England. He told me the parish church was built on the site of what is now thought to be a Bronze Age (pre Christian) burial mound or barrow in the middle ages when the building was extended to its present length. As it was the idea of Stone and Bronze Age didn't exist at the time and it was recorded the three skeletons found were of ancient Irish Christian saints whose remains had been imported in Saxon times (as sometimes happened).
