Gentle Grace

When daylight comes with gentle grace
Its light caressing ‘ore your face
I follow its path with softest trace
Then feel my heart begin to race
This shows that I love you

The sun will touch your face with light
And chase away the dark of night
I’ll take you on a magic flight
Bath your soul in pure delight
I’ll prove that I love you

When moonbeams brush across your skin
It stirs the fires deep within
The blush of heat stains my skin
Where love and joy enter in
I’ll reveal my love for you

The touch of breeze across your lips
The gentle swaying of your hips
I trace you with my fingertips
I’ll taste your soul in tiny sips
I know my love is true

Marsha


To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79

Marsha my love foreswear the moon
don't you rise too far too soon
Romance it seems becomes you true
with passion spent in heart of you
this lovely piece writ with your love
draws the magic from above
calls the angels to draw near
to sit in silence, your words hear
and as for me, I'm lost anew
amazed at the gift that springs from you.

*Hugs*

Marsha Grace

"From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another."
NIV John 1:16

Moonlight on a summer eve glows your name
And I am captured by twinkling moonbeams
Rolling along a perfect star lit frame
Shining, saying I am Love, you're my dreams
How I vaporize as I realize God made you
Angel of my soul! Honey! Morning dew

God has made The Throne O, so beautiful
Raising rainbow levels when making you
And I know ev'ry star twinkles lighting full
Cause God desires to show all Glory, true.
Everything about You makes me Love You.

Marsha Grace.

Do you have any idea how pretty this is, read aloud, but quietly?  Like a little prayer, my dear, a little soft prayer...

sis,

such warm gentle grace flies from your
pen straight from your heart...and i
agree, read aloud this sounds so pretty...
as always your words leave me in awe,
your talent leaves me with all smiles!
love and romance look good on you my
friend...and we are very lucky to witness
this miracle, your writing!

take care.
love you.

When daylight comes with gentle grace
Its light caressing ‘ore your face

I love the romance in this one, Marsha...
So very well done...
I've missed being here so much...
I'm back for today,for a couple of hours anyway....don't know if I can handle more than that....
but I am going to try to be here as often as possible.  Its hard during the week because we are always running back and forth to Ann Arbor...but I only have 1 more week of this and then a couple of weeks of intense recovery.
~loads of warm hugs~
