There is something to be said for moonlight
But what about when the moons sleeps
There is something to be said for sunrise
But what happens when the darkness creeps

There is something to be said for beach walks
But what is there when the snow falls
There is something to be said for firelight
But what happens when blazing summer calls

There is something to be said for love songs
But what happens when the music slows
There is something to be said for sweet poetry
But what is there when the muse goes

There is something to be said for tender kisses
But what is there when the kiss must cease
There is something to be said for holding on tight
But what happens when you loose the peace

There is something to be said for loving you
But what happens when you see the real me
There is something to be said for mirrored souls
But what happens when it’s not what you want to see

There is always something left to be said
But you can chose not to lend an ear
There is always someone to tell you what they think
But you are always there to hold me near

There is something to be said for a true love
But with it comes the acceptance of who I will be
There is something shared between our two souls
But this makes all the promises of love easy to see

Holly my dear sweet friend.  You know that this got to me.  You have penned such a beautiful creation here.  It shows the anxiety of finding a true love and all the fears that go with it.  Absolutely wonderful!

BDC,

You have said much in these words my friend.  There is something to be said about the heart of a poet . . . soft, sweet, loving . . . when the love is true, all is revealed.  Wishing you nothing but the best, sweets, you deserve it.  

Wonderful writing!!

Butterflies~
     I'm just about to cry here!  I love this!  I am sorry I have been away for so long, but I just got my computer up and going again.  I have missed you so much -- you can't even imagine.  Dear friend, you have a beautiful heart.



Love Ya~

and I am all the better for it~

There is something to be said about sweet and dear poems.....
and its that they make you smile and lift your way....
and then you wonder why you didn't read them the other day...

Bravo Butterflies...
