Ok..probably my last post for a while as I am again called to do more than time allows, and the option of not doing so... is not an option I have enjoyed my visit back, and will return as I can to read and comment... Love you all...and maybe I will be wrong..and will have more time than I think... but don't be concerned if I am not around for a bit.
Would That I Could

I would touch you
And wipe away the fears you hide
Scrubbing clean the heart of all dust
From tramping passers through
So that you might smile on life
And perhaps on me
As I know you once did
With a love’s first

I would ask you
For time to make it true
For trust to comfort
But not expect an answer in words
Giving you a lifetime to explain

I would touch you…
That I too could feel the depths
Knowing well I could drown
in the sea of your eyes
carried away on undertow
as I sank.

I would ask you
If I could

(BIG HUGGGSSSSS) We'll all miss you so much but we all understand that you're busy and we will all be here when you're finished! (smiles) This is soooooo beautiful, sweet friend, I believe that love is impossible to explain and specify and love is meant to be answered for eternal life dearly! We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is excellent! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Cpat

You write such heart that I feel you.
A poet's right to write thus, and to read within the tear.

Take care of you.

Would that I could...
I'd tie your anchor down.
Would that I could ...
I'd run your ship aground.

Would that I could ...
I'd make your other job go away.
Would that YOU could ...
for a poet should be able to stay and play.




YOU CANT LEAVE...YA JUST CAME BACK!!

*SIGH* aint that just like a sailor ( )
always pulling up anchor.
ok ok...do what you must...we will be saving your stool...you know which port to dry dock in. LOL

take care Capt sir.

If you have to go
then let me say goodbye
don't stay around too long
for you might see me cry

...I'll wait a day for you
another poem or two...

if you just have to go...

[somehow that sounds like an off-key song, don't you think?  LOL...take Care, Cap'n...and hurry back to sanity, okay?]

You've touched many here in spirit C. That doesn't go away. Only makes us miss you. This view of your heart is precious.

Sincerely,
Regina
