You are the sunlight flooding my sapphire skies, The whispering wind upon which my soul flies, The shadows of your love still kiss my face, Sending my trembling heart to an ethereal place. You are my shimmering angel made into breathing life, The gentle voice that is the end to all my strife, The one who takes my hand and wipes away crystalline tears, Pushing away my all my doubts, easing my darkest of fears. To tell you simply that I love you, it doesn't say a thing, For how can three words express the happiness you bring? Forever, a timeless eternity my love will be with you, Trust in me, hold me close, and I will guide you through. Never doubt what I feel for you, fully believe the words I say, Always my love has been with you, and it shall eternally stay. Through even the wind scattered sands of time what I speak is true, These words are etched upon my heart, and they are my gift to you. ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "Your kiss upon my face feels like a brush with grace, baby thats all it takes to take me higher..."

Beautiful! ------------------ "In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit." --Albert Schweitzer [This message has been edited by Terri (edited 08-10-99).] |

I envy you that inspiration - and if that was quick it was still marvellously well done. |

I think you'd be surprised at just how much a teen can be in love, I think...anyways, thank you for your kind words. And Sue, yeah, it was written in all of about 5 minutes.  ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "Your kiss upon my face feels like a brush with grace, baby thats all it takes to take me higher..."

Alwye, sometimes, I've found, that the best works just comes to us... it just finds it's way from our hearts to our brains... That inspiration that you have found is a truly wonderful thing, isn't it? I think so... Love is a wonderful thing... ------------------ ~onevoice~ "She looked at her life like lines, never-ending, constantly forming, reforming and bending." |

This fits my sentiments so much right now that I had to boost it up again... ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "If I could be an angel, I'd make your every wish come true. But I am only human, just a woman lovin' you..." Trisha Yearwood |
