           “MORNING THOUGHTS”
                          by
                      Bill Charles
                         ~~~~
In my mind are many different thoughts,
       and one of them was to write
              a poem this morning…
But I didn’t know what to write about,
       until my heart spoke saying,
              “make it becoming”…

I looked up this word in the dictionary,
       and it says the following,
              ‘tending to have an attractive effect’…
The first thought that came to my mind,
       were words about you,
              and the ways you protect…

When I’m sad inside, you make me smile,
       you speak to me,
              and listen to my words…
The warmth of your touch charms me,
       it all keeps me,
              going forwards…

So I just wanted you to know how I feel,
       with these few words,
              which I’ve written…
And to say from my heart, how I love you,
       for you have captured all of,
              my affection…
                          ~~~~

This is truly beautiful writing Bill.  Such expression of feeling is so truly heartfelt.
wonderful...

On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free.

Now this is sweet and cozy...and I am beginning to think it's spring!

Someone is lucky to inspire such tenderness!

Bill,
what a comely poem, well becoming to your grace and style. (And no I'm not going to add you'll see her in the mourning when she'll be coming around the mountain.)
*wink*

Keth

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

(smiles) Oh Bill, this is sooooooo beautiful, sometimes the most beautiful honest words of poetry come from simple words of terms of endearment! (big hugggssssss) May her love always fill your heart, sweet friend, as we all love you so so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Bill darling boy this is utterly utterly fabulous. truly becoming. How can you write so well all the time? I wish I could. DO I wish I'd written this? What's the point of wishing for the moon, I might just as well wish to become the Queen of England, it's not going to happen so I'll stop whishing. Instead I'll enjoy the wonder of you.

Absolutely Fabulous


Love and warm stuff
