Heaven On Earth

The feel of your gaze
Caresses this grateful heart
That loves you so much
I thank the heavens above
For your never ending love

Heaven here on earth
When I hear your soft whispers
Filling my heart with
Gratitude, joy, hope, and strength
How could I ever thank you

The rest of my life
Will be spent showing you just
How much I love you
Showing you how much I care
Throughout this journey of life





This is, of course, for my dear love Dave

(smiles) Here's the link to the site I get all those smileys and hearts from and post with my comments, sweet Tara!
http://www.plauder-smilies.de/

Just click on any smiley you would like to use and then at the bottom of the screen, copy the UBB Code onto your message box and edit the code just as you would do with a Passions smiley code! (kiss on cheek) Have fun with them!!!

Love,
Noah Eaton
