Solitary Tear, Why do thou grieve?
Alone no more are thou,
Beneath Autumns winds,
Love has wrapped it arms all around you....

Carried you unto this place,

Dry thy eye, with a kiss,
Thy hands upon thy face,
looking deep into your eyes,

The moment has not passed,
For time has stood still,
I wait upon your sweet reply,

No longer will thy eye cry,
Let it be answered according to thy will...

A thousand miles deep into the forest,
A tear so burdened with love was so heavy,

Amidst all the trees, the flowers,
Through the tranquility and stillness of the wood,
I could hear the drop of the solitary tear,

tear that was shed for me to see, to hear,
As I hear it fall,
My heart answers to the call...

I run deep into the forest to find the solitary tear...

Are you here? Hello are you here?....


 "Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O,no! it is an ever-fixed mark....William Shakespeare

RH,
This was beautiful!!!  So touching.  I just love these lines...


"Amidst all the trees, the flowers,
Through the tranquility and stillness of the wood,
I could hear the drop of the solitary tear,"

You seems to be hearing that muse loud and clear these days.  I love this one!!  




 Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end.

This was Beautiful Romantic.
Flowed nicely!

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson
