**********
She found herself a treasure
when she found him

Not believing anymore in
fairy tales or
fantasies
She had a difficult time in
the belief of

For she found herself a treasure
when she found him

Their love was like a
pot of gold at the end
of a rainbow

She found an everlasting love
when she found him

Their love seemed to be a fairytale
in a mystical
fantasyland of love
magically of
passion

Yes, she found herself a treasure
when she fell in love
with him

This poem is a treasure! So sweet, tender and endearing...

Warm hugs to you this snowy night (at least it is here in Ontario!)

Linda

P.S. Ethel, you may enjoy reading my poem "Twin Souls" in Reflections. As I was posting it, I was thinking how much that you and Gary could identify with it.

I never cease to be amazed at how fearlessly you put your heart on the line.  Such lovely thoughts you express.  Nice job.  Ken

Love is often the stuff of dreams and fairytales.  Am glad yours came true.

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn

Ken, thank you for your reply. You know, I guess it's just that I'm so confident that my Love won't hurt me the way I've been hurt in the past. I believe he loves me so much that I would trust him with my life.

Hugs from

Goldboat,
I forgot to tell you to be sure to use my
name and my copyright if you post my poem
on the other sight. I would greatly
appreciate it if you would do that.
Thank you,
