~Diminishing joy
dreams fade upon winds of time.

A candle burns out.~



If I have touched one heart through my words, then I have acheived my dream...

(big hugggssssss) Oh Donna, I know this feeling ever so much, for that is how I am feeling right now. (sad sigh) This is heartfelt, sweet friend, I send angel hugs to those who also feel this way, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

THIS, is a power-packed piece of work.
The last line hits hard.
Awesome Gentle Spirit!

May dreams be fueled
by flame atop of candle
that gives life
to dark of shadow.

A lovely expression Donna.

Donna,

This is another very sad write. I do enjoy your writings though.

Donna, if you are going through a difficult time, it sure as heaven hasn't affected your writing! This is a piece of perfect poetry--albeit very sad...

Your words will find a home in my library.

Donna, hauntingly sad, yet beautiful at the same time.  

The stars will shine when I am gone,
the earth will turn on as before,
the gulls, still race along the shore,
the morning star, still kiss the dawn
