My Heart Has A Thousand Songs My heart has a thousand songs it needs to sing Songs that are soft and those that make it ring She has tales of loves' soft and delicate touch Songs that sing of how she yearns so very much Some that bleed with the pain of so many years And songs that weep with the bitterest of tears My heart has a million dreams that must be told Dreams that are frozen with fears so icy and cold Some dreams unfold in the velvet darkness of night Dreams that touched and brushed against your light Whispered dreams that remember all our days of wine Dreams that recall we once had such a glorious time My heart has a lifetime of stories she can relate Stories that tell of her emotional and sad state Tales that tell of nights with hearts dying in pain Stories of how she will eventually rise once again Tales that can teach me all I really need to know Stories that help me stand up and start to grow My heart has songs that show me how I will shine Dreams that prophesy that my heart will be fine Stories that tell how I've come sailing on through Songs that sing of my hearts eternal love for you How it will reach out to touch your heart to mine Wishes that someday, somehow our hearts will entwine Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

We are ALL so very, very glad that you joined this choir... keep singing little one! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

And you sing them all so beautifully my friend. We ARE so glad that you joined us here as you have and continue to bring so many smiles to us all (even if some of them are somewhat mushy)  Lovely verse from you. (say hi to the MBOOPA's for me and give a round of hugs to them all and make sure you kiss Daphne and Sue for me.) |

Eowyn, thank you very muchly. Welcome to this wonderful world, I'll look forward to reading your work. I do appreciate that you took the time to read this. Kari, thanks love, and I promise I'll only sing in tune with my heart.  Or in the bath . Glad you like it kid, (now you get the throw away line, just a little something I knocked out in my break, )  Tony, I'm glad you took the time to say hi. Welcome to Passions, I can guarentee you'll love it here. Bob, Why thank you very kindly. And don't I wish, if I had a drop of their talent I'd be a happy bunny. Didn't think there'd be that many who'd get that reference. Thanks again. Mark my friend are you home? Welcome back, you have been sorely missed, and both Sue and Daphnie, are driving me to distraction. I'll put them both through the window soon. Thank you very muchly, and I'm glad I joined the choir too. I certainly wouldn't be without Passions, it gives me so much, far more than I contribute I'm sure. The MBOOPAS are all waving and sending smiles and Sue and Daphnie are blowing kisses. (They would naturally prefer to deliver them personally but I am not handing over the site to them again today.)

P T love, now that I'm an Elite, does that mean I have to act with decorum and dignity, because I don't think I can love. Thank you, yes it is entwined, and I'm sure that's why I'm trying so hard for you love. I think you deserve something, sorry I mean someone to snuggle with. (I'm sorry the something sort of slipped out, as the actress said )Take care love and have a great Christmas.Mushy Paula love, thank you love, I was in a choir once, although not for long, I dropped my candle during the pocessional entrance, and they couldn't get the candle wax out of the marquetry flooring. take careMushy Nate, I thank you so much, I really do Take care Mushy Poeminister, thank you very much, I do sincerely mean it Take care Mushy Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
