Skipping stones to overturn
if only I could keep my eyes closed
and make the moment last longer.
I linger there, trying to capture you in the limelight
enhancing my imagination
holding onto the time that comes quietly
as the sand pours through your hands
complimenting my dreams.
Counting my blessings one by one
deep in the heart where treasures are buried
rare gems seen through keen eyes
sparkle in the darkness,
in all their essence, strung along
slipping through the loose ends of my mind...

(smiles) Yes, yes, and on that very beach of life where you toss your stones of desire may the ebb come and leeward oysters of fortune fill your sands and produce endless pearls that more than completes a necklace of joy that can fit around your neck! (kiss on cheek) Yay, I love this, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Lori, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

slipping through the loose ends of my mind
as usual... I enjoyed the thoughts and the read.. but this part especially...

lori,

to say this is beautiful would be an
understatement...it's like you read my
mind took a picture and then captured
it into words...i felt this so much...
your writing truly is amazing!!
take care

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead

This poem is very fine.

"holding onto the time that comes quietly
as the sands pour through my hands
complementing my dreams"

I like this very much.
