words rush to the rescue
feelings surge from the heart
teeth grate at the sounds of heartbreak
hearts pound with desire
ears burn from thoughtless words
palms sweat in anticipation
feet itch desiring to run
eyes water in sadness
noses run after the tears
if I didn’t go on
you would think this is bad
but here is the answer
don’t feel like you’ve been had
all these things are a part of
a lifetime with love
it doesn’t always fit like a hand in a glove

(smiles) Oh Paul, I couldn't agree with you more, sweet friend, I still yearn to meet Joanna for the first time and I cry a lot because I love her and sometimes get scared I may lose her and she means so much to me, yet I know I'm only loving her more each day! (big hugggsssssss) This is lovely wisdom, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Hi Paul, yes agree with you.  Sometimes we are put to go through some rough patches, for us to appreciate the true beauty of love, and reap the happiness it gives.

Paul

Love is such a strong force...like a hoop, we jump and sometimes fall..but the beauty of the feeling, is the reason for it all.

  enjoyed!

A wonderful poem, Paul...
and as with love, the true course of life never runs smooth...and just think how boring it would be if it did.
