Wait For Me Will you wait for me beyond the blue through limbs of cedar white Will you wait for me when skies no longer spread a starry night Through season of the golden maple, leaves of crimson red Will you be there when the fields are brown and woodland trees are shed Can your heart contain its longing through the days of frozen lake Through whistling songs of blowing pines, the white of crystal flake Can I count on you to be there when the winter ices thaw And little brooks are swollen where the mountain waters fall Can your love wait through the gentle rains of April’s lazy days Will your heart be waiting for me through the mist of morning haze When the sun dries dewdrops beaded on the blades of springtime green Will your eyes contain the portrait of a love so long unseen Through the lavenders and yellows and the blues of May delights Will the power of our love withstand the dark and lonely nights Can you wait to be together in the early days of June When through the white of cedar limbs, the light of marble moon Elizabeth Santos |

"Through the lavenders and yellows and the blues of May delights Will the power of our love withstand the dark and lonely nights Can you wait to be together in the early days of June When through the white of cedar limbs, the light of marble moon"   (smiles) Awwwwwwww, this is soooooo blossoming with life and love, sweet friend, your wonderful words always shine with such love and warmth and sing like Mr. Bluebird in spring! (kiss on cheek) May love always stand there waiting for you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Elizabeth, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Through the lavenders and yellows and the blues of May delights Will the power of our love withstand the dark and lonely nights Can you wait to be together in the early days of June When through the white of cedar limbs, the light of marble moon Elizabeth - What a beautiful picture you paint with your words! Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

Well there you go again making that look so darn easy. I tried to answer it on paper for fun, and didn't get past the second line - you are just good that's all! This was absolutely glorious writing Liz. We should spend less time on worrying when our life is going to end and more on when it's going to start! |
