Sugar and spice, and so much nice and headaches and PMS too. Lord, I ask again...just once more... Why are women here on the earth? Why can’t it just be us guys doing guy things? I know...you told me this, once before... A woman is that part of heaven that I give. A woman is that heart for which we all live.... But... Lord....I already know all of that.. Remember...you told me that... Why are they here? You took my rib that they might breath that one breath... One which brought before me beauty beyond compare.. One which has touched me in more than many ways.. That has comforted and consoled me through those days... But Lord.....isn’t there more to life than just that warmth? How about the other stuff? You know what I am saying... After all, all I really need is just to get some attention... To feel that I am worthy, that I am loved and needed... That.....someone cares about me..... What? You mean THEY feel that way too? And...that if they feel this, they will give the flower of life..... to hold and keep, to cherish and endear...To love and protect....to comfort and console....and more... All of this Lord? Just by giving to them...those things that WE, the men want so much too? Yes Lord...now I understand.... Without them....life would not be, or become that which we might want it to be.... This is why we have a Mother Earth... |

  (smiles) Oh Barry, this is soooooo beautiful, and I truly believe in the spirit of Shekinah and Mother Nature married to the grace of God that women filled this world with flowers and the prettiest treasures we cherish in which their hearts that make men better people blossom as! (big hugggssssss) This is wonderful, sweet friend, I am adding this to my library now because it is timeless, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Pssst! Linda... Don't tell anyone.....but it was a girl that wrote this...I didn't do it... (threats received by male poets...telling me to delete the poem...or else!.....) If I do what they want me to...then I will have ten million angry women on me... threatening to .... who knows.... If I don't...it will be about a billion guys..all threatening to...well...you can only imagine... So, I am gracefully bowing out... I didn't do it...... (Joking of course)...you do believe me? Right? Right? |

Barry - Great understanding with humor! Now never, ever forget why there are women! Did you know we sometimes like to do guy stuff. I'm even watching Monday night football. My Patriots had better win!! Hugs, Marti |
