(Here's a new emotional love song I wrote inspired by my grandmother's loving words of wisdom, when she would tell me when I was younger that, "A child that learns acceptance and patience will learn to find love in the world!", and she would tell me fireflies truly speak of miracles.

Her thoughts have touched my heart for so long as I long to love for the first time, and I feel I understand what she means more than ever and inspired this longing song.

Wish me luck that I may begin solving love's riddle this summer!)

Summer Always Answers Prayers Best
By: Noah Eaton
6/19/06

Today I walked along the boardwalk,
and I imagined you were here with me,
an hour before dawn kissed the summer sky,
checking out whatever seemed interesting,
you were like my maiden of the mist,
the starry surprise of your eyes made me swoon,
and right before I could feel your pristine kiss,
I’m left trying to preserve the glow of this honeymoon.

And I know,
I can feel,
your heart song momentarily,
and through all these winters,
I’ve found there’s an invincible summer,
chanting inside of me…

I believe summer always answers prayers best,
searching the seasons wildly on love’s quest,
there’s a feeling I have only fireflies can express,
when you leave nothing but tulip beds,
and golden threads in my head...

There’s something about the mystery of summer,
that makes you suffer but enjoy it immensely,
my heart beats thunderously chasing you around,
with sensitive eyes searching densely and intensely,
like a ladybug that lands on my shoulder,
you’re like a sweetest memory I’ve yet to understand,
fulfilling the promise of dozens of months past,
with the touch of your gentle hand...

And I know,
I can feel,
your heart song momentarily,
and through all these winters,
I’ve found there’s an invincible summer,
chanting inside of me...

I believe summer always answers prayers best,
searching the seasons wildly on love’s quest,
there’s a feeling I have only fireflies can express,
when you leave nothing but tulip beds,
and golden threads in my head...

there’s a feeling I have only fireflies can express,
when you leave nothing but tulip beds,
and golden threads in my head...

If this magical love poem doesn't induce "the One" to manifest, what will?

Dear Noah, here and now I say a prayer of gratitude for your dream to come true. It is done!

Summer is here. And Love too!

Love,
Margherita
