Words Of Wisdom From Rob, As Though He Knew... All Those Years Ago... What Will Be Happening Toady... About His Illness... In Wing And A Prayer, originally written in 1969, there are these lines, which in some ways, were prophetic of what he is going though now - a difficult time. While I was listening to the song again, in the last few days, it's on my 'Robin' compilation CD... I realized just how relevant these beautiful words of Robin's, written so long ago, are. And how prophetic... As If He Knew... The last line, of the bottom four, in particular, speaks of strength, and the will to fight, it says to me, "I will never leave you, I will always be here, I am not going anywhere, I am staying right here where I am." The first two lines of the top four, by the way, describe Rob, himself, perfectly. As he is going through this. And the bottom two lines of the same four, describe, so well, his stance about his health, and his strength. They say, simply, "I am strong, I'll get through what I am going through" Sweet bird of sunrise Brown hair and sad eyes Cry not one tear for me And I’ll be home
And the power is in your hands And nothing in life is planned There’ll be tears in the midst of a laughter And I promise I’ll be with you ever afterThis is from me, To You Sweetie: You Are Surrounded By A Circle Of Love, A Circle Of Life, A Circle Of Light, A Circle Of Warmth, A Circle Of Healing. You Are So Strong, You Are So Brave, You Will Be Well Once More, If You Are Willing.
With Those You Love Most Dearly, The Circle Of Love Is Like A Breath Of Life, You Are At Home, Contented To Be There, Feeling, Inside The Ancient And Familiar Walls Tucked In, Like In A Blanket Soft As Dreams, So Warmly And Securely.
If I could take this, illness, which hurts You so, into myself, if only it were possible, I would. I know that You are going through a difficult time now, a rough patch in Your contented and happy life. It is hard for me to describe in words, what I feel right now. If I could, if it were in any way possible, I would take Your illness and any and all pain You may be experiencing, or may experience, as You do Your very best, to rid Yourself of this thing that ails you, into myself. Let me go through all of it in Your stead, while You, healthy and strong, as always, do all the things that bring You, Your Beautiful Family, and countless other people around the world, so much happiness and pleasure. The world needs You, I need You. You Do so many wonderful things, You are a Healer, A Nourisher, An Angel. You bring people together. But I am not a person needed by so many around the world, I am just me. If only I could... Take This From You... Than It is I who woud be going through this, healed, by Your Voice in my ear. I Love You So Much My Dearest, Sweetest Friend. I Believe In You! The Power is In You Hands! As You Said So Well. :0

When you listen to the original Sing Slowly Sisters in comparison you may notice that the lines are not there. Thank you Gabe, for the beautiful video. The original version sounds as beautiful as the new one. Only on the new one Robin sounds more mature singing it, and that gives it a bit of a different feeling. And you are right of course, those lines are not there. Love, Tali.

Shells, my friend, Alma, and Cricket, Thank You so much for your kind words. I meant every word I said. If I could, if there was a way... I would take his illness into me and suffer in his stead. He does know how much we love and cherish him, how precious he is to each and everyone of us. And that as he said, so sweetly is a great tonic to him. We are a great tonic to him. We give him strength!
Oh Rob, please get well, dearest. I believe in You! You are Strong! And there is only one way to go, only one road, and that's back to heath! As You said, Sweetie, it's onwards and upwards, from here. I Love You So Very Much, Blossom. Just remember: After each winter comes spring, after each night comes dawn, and a new day follows. As the saying goes, Sweetie: it gets darkest before the dawn. Tenderest Hugs and Many Smiles. xoxoxo
