( in a little country & western mood this evening   )
.
.
.


Top of the morning
From the bottom of my heart..
What a way
to start the day
looking at your face
and
saying...

Top of the morning
From the bottom of my heart
Yes, it's true
I'm so in love
with you.

Top of the morning
From the bottom of the heart..
Sun above
and morning dove
wait to grace
your face
so
lovely...

Top of the morning
From the bottom of my heart
Very true
I'm so in love
with you.

Who knew
when we started
It would come to this...
No more
broken-hearted...
Waking you with
morning
kisses

Top of the morning
From the bottom of my heart.
Girl, it's true
I'm so in love
with you.

Country music, huh?  Now I know how you felt when Tracey told the world I liked Rosie O'Donnell!  Oh well, none of us is perfect, though we come damn close, don't you think?  lol  Fun write, Balladeer.

Balladeer!  You are way too cool!
Grab my hand and lead me to the dance floor, for some boot scootin boogie!
~hugs, Nancy~

But as long as you're here you might as well dance~

You are so absolutely delightful Michael ... this is just wonderful!  She would be a lucky, lucky lady indeed sweet poet, to hear such beautiful words from you each morning. Big hugs for these loving and flowing sentiments! Grabbing the cowboy boots now ... I'm ready for a two-step!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

Deer,
Top o the morning to you.
This ain't no C&W though It ain't got no blues and it ain't got no dawg.
