they are a mystery to me
these blossoms of early spring
to turn their back so quickly
on a hard and sorrowful winter

much forgiveness must nature instill
in these simple flowers
perhaps God does understand
what he puts us through

no, it is what we put ourselves through
taking responsability for things
forcing others to feel the same
when what is needed is forgiveness

and it will come
shining and bright
your life will come
upon a new day

(smiles) Forgiveness is a real virtue, and I believe He knows why we go through this pain sometimes; to make us the loving compassionate people we are born to be! (sigh) Soooooooo touching, sweet James, your words always teach us such wonderful lessons! I love it! (big hugggssssss) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

If we but turn our faces to the sun/son than we too will feel the warmth of forgiveness flowing into us. Oh yes, tonight is a feast for me and a much needed one too. Thank you. **hugs**

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.
