Alone
swinging gently in the breeze
where laughter once was heard
a smile was seen
a kiss given

Where a child felt free
felt safe to fly into clouds
chasing rainbows
and dreams

Alone
No longer swinging in the breeze
laughter has faded
replaced by tears, fears
and prayers.

God protect her
Keep this child safe
as each sun rises
upon a tiny face.

Whisper to her
Tell her she is loved
She is not forgotten
Tell her .....

I love her...

Magnus, this is so sad and soft.It made me sigh and then tears flowed.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Your Whispers will be heard, the wind shall carry them...and the sun helps make the wind move, you know...oh indeed, yes it does...

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

Hello Barry

Once again your words have the power to move me.  This was simply beautiful.

Take care......Sue

I am blue

I'm anchored in you

(sigh) My thoughts and feelings are with her, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much!



May love and light awlays swhine upon you!

Magnus darling heart this is perfect and so very very heart wrenching. It echoes with love and tears, truly wonderful heart and soul’s feeling here. I love the trace of love that overlays this like a veil of wonder. YOU shine darling heart you really do. This is superb writing and I love it utterly, as always the phrases flow down the page in smooth and truthful cascade.  

Absolutely perfect writing  and I love it well written and always special from you. I love it utterly utterly love it

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy


Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire
