Into a radiant butterfly she has grown
baring her heart, her soul she has shown.
Beauty and grace depicting her delicate side
in her waves of thought, we get lost in the tide~

In her ocean of dreams our mind slips away
lost in her tenderness, a wish made to stay.
Through eyes of emerald her inner light shines
her words of perfection, flavored like a fine wine~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Her gift is her words with eloquent artistry strong
we love our dear Greeneyes, come listen to her song.



(thank you dear Lauren, for always just being you... )



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

I am glad that I can still know when you need that hug, and that I can be here to give it to you my friend.  E-mail should be on it's way. I was just remembering and wanted to thank you for the smiles...and memories.   Hugs to you, you are very special dear one....very special. (Even the monkey said so....*w*)

This is so "Lauren" and while I am thanking you for thanking her, let me thank you too!  You caught her heart in this one that is for sure, and I can remember a year ago when I came she was a favorite that day, and still is!  Blessings, Lauren.

Live today like it was your last day on earth!

Thank you all.

Lauren has graced me with her friendship.  She has
taught me that it is ok to stand strong in my convictions.
She has touched my life in more ways than I can ever share.
She helped me to understand that it is ok to shed a tear....
She has brought a much needed smile to my face many times.
She has accepted me as I am, regardless of my faults.
Through her I have learned that it is ok to be me just the way I am.

Her words breathe over us like a warm soft gentle summer rain.
I don't often have near the time here anymore as I used to....life changes....
(I'm not complaining though  *s*)
I wanted to be able to give her something back....the only gift that I can give is
this gift of words.

It is with pride that I call Lauren friend.  
A very special hug to you all for helping
me to hug her.  God Bless you all.  
Hugs to poetry land~
