 You Shall Dance Again You shall dance again in the arms of your love You will find the comfort of those eyes anew With the heavens opening up the sky above As you glide across the billows with love so true You won't wear any shoes as you dance on this night Your feet gliding with wisps of clouds between your toes The stars of the heavens setting the mood with soft light The harps of angels singing love songs as the music flows There is this dance There is this cloud There is this day When you will once again... Waltz across the heart That you hold so dear Mark Bohannan A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |

Balladeer-Emotion whe it is kind is always accepted is it not. Thank you kind sir for your always generous words. Karilea-Thank you and I though my words don't do the thought true justice I can only hope that she finds the depth of the meaning in them. Lady Lightning-Why thank you my friend. Running out of tissues huh? Maybe you need to find a shirt sleeve to use then.   Gemini-Many of yours have left me in awe as well and I thank you dearly for the comments. Charisma-I don't know about the wonderful part but I do thank you just the same. Hugs back to you. Bill-She is indeed deserving of much more than I am able to express but I do try. Now I do believe that your heart is about 3 sizes larger than mine. Thank you so much kind sir. dragonpoe-Thank you sir. Your words are much appreciated. ethome-She does deserve all the thoughts that she gets and so much more and I do believe that God himself is given to us with each of Liz's posts. Thank you kind sir and they do say that timing is everything. SEA-Thank you my sweet friend. I only tried to give back a little of what she has given to us all so freely for so long. snowpants-Thank you my friend. Yes, within these walls many very strong friendships are born and reside here and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Liz is definitely in that circle with so many of us here as you know. Marge-A hug from your heart is like finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Thank you my sweet friend and hugs back at you. Vicky-Thank you my dear friend. She is so deserving don't you agree? Yes, of course you do. Hugs back at you. Martie-Thank you my friend and so nice to see you here. I don't know about all that stuff you say about me but I won't tell if you don't. Elizabeth-If you could see the dance then I am honored that my words painted a good enough picture to get you there. Thank you kindly. |

Mark, that was simply BEAUTIFUL! You are amazing to me, the heart you have, the warmth you offer, the shelter you provide when others are low. There could be no greater gift than knowing there's a friend out there. You stand ABOVE THEM ALL when it comes to the truest heart. Your writings always bring a smile. Love the poem!Sauni Sauni :) Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps |
