I am provider and
nurturer of needs. I am a mother,
a teacher of young ones, an ouchie kisser.
Lend me a little one
and I will love it.

I am a dancer, when no one
is there to see.

I can fix your computer
a lot better
than I can fix what’s wrong
with me.

I once was Love, I was the stirring
within, to his lips the curve
of his adore;
to his arms, the filling;
to his heart, the beating.

I love to drive
to challenge speed.

My body is pleasing
if only to me.

I am a wife, though more times
than not, I find that
I must not know how to be.

I am a writer, or at least,
I try to be.

I am all and none of these, I am
but a flesh bound soul
awaiting release.

BRAVO!!! I can see what you mean here, sweet friend, there are so many wonderful things that make you the loving person you are, yet our mission in life is simple, and as long as we all remain close to what we dream for and to Him, we will find all our heart desires! (smiles) You are a delight to us all, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

You've just written the résumé of my heart~

Powerfully done with delicate inking of strength~

I know:
So many things to be, or not
when and if to sigh, I try
to be the me I am right now

"I am all and none of these, I am
but a flesh bound soul
awaiting release."

You are a writer!

rofg @ Balladeer's ouchie... opportunistic fella, isn't he? *G*

Did I remember to tell you that this is one of my very favorites??? *S*

Now you know I'm rotten at critique, but I'll make an exception here. *S* You can leave off that "try to be" phrase... for you ARE a writer. *S* No doubt here at all. *S*
