Off The Stones Of Ocean's Bed Just when in her minds eye she thought she could forget his eyes She finds him sifting through her subconscious like sands in an hour glass And, little by little she tries to bring herself to feel numb from it all But, she still finds it hard to resist those images that sweetly pass... He remains part of her present and at heart, future, too And, just when she thinks she's walking along the serenest of paths She finds him in every part of nature God hands her there And, like the waves of the ocean, his face comes rushing back... Oh, like the rocks of the oceans glorious bed When the waters crush against those stones and spray mist endlessly Is how his thoughts flow for they just keep finding their way to her That sudden rush, like those waters, then flowing back to calm seas... It's only seconds that the waters lie still in the peace of the winds Then, without warning, it gathers speed for it's final land on the stones The rolling and thunder like sounds draw her attention even more She's overwhelmed with his heart just as the stones have always known... Like off the stones of the oceans mighty bed She now realizes she can't escape the rush sometimes in her heart Just as those stones placed there within sea-green waters There is just no way to keep the two apart... She so doesn't mind the impact of what his loving thoughts bring She just isn't sure how to handle the oceans temporary rains And, while sea spray rests upon her face beneath precious skies She'll just find comfort, in the next wave, about to crash by...

  (smiles) Oh Saunni, this is so beautifully crafted and flows with a rhythm of serenity, sweet friend, may she always find comfort by the beachside and find herself drifting off to sleep with peace and in good light! (kiss on cheek) This is breathtaking, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
