Slipping softly through the nights shadows
Love comes knocking
Let her in
Let your heart be your guide
Not your head
Not your eyes
Trust yourself
Not your friends
And when love knocks
Let her in

Paula,

I'm in a moment of questioning myself.  That poem made me smile and helped me to look towards the right path (I hope).
"Let her in".
I think I will.  Well said.

Trew.


I have been to see the world. Tasted life at every turn.
And all the time your face came back to haunt me.

Hey, hey Paula...I want to marry you some day....oh, sorry your name reminded me of that old song.
"And when Love knocks
let her in."
Creative writing with a nice touch of longing.   James

Paula~
Short but sweet...This was fantastic
Trust yourself
Not your friends
And when love knocks
Let her in...
Great Tracie~


Love is the life of the soul...
It is the harmony of the universe

If Love should come knocking at my door,
or even should she ring my bell,
Someone please help me off the floor
For by the sound I was felled...

Very Nice Paula..

James,

If you only knew how often I heard that in my life...thanks for your kind words.

Jamie,
Love tends to surprise us all from time to time...knocking when you least expect it. Heres a hand up off that floor.

X angel thanks

Tracie sometimes it only takes a few words to say whats in you heart  thanks
