The Key In trust I was given a key, My love said “Please, keep this for me, For it fits only my heart, It gives us a start,” On a chain lies the golden key. On a chain lies the golden key, I wear it next near my heart, Though we may be apart A touch of key thrills me As it feels the beat of my heart. For this key was given in trust, By a love that is good and just, He loves only me It’s carved in the key, Though alone my feet step through the dust. A promise was made from his eyes A future we’ll realize, If I held to his key For his heart is in me We’ll someday have reason for sighs. He went off to do as he would For honor is true, and is good, A chain holds his key His promise, you see… For in trust was I given his key.  |

I like. ...*reads your critique message* Aw man. You've gotta make this complicated. Let's see... Tell me what it made you feel It reminds me of someone. think, ponder Maybe there are people you can trust. and what you may be taking away I'm resisting the urge to make a smart-assed comment about pick-pocketing the key. heh.

Gosh, you look so young in your picture, but all those posts, honey, you must have been here forever and a day!!!  Hugs and luvs, Marti Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts. A.Einstein |
