We gained serenity from our vows to love and drew together in celebration young in spirit and heart we began our lives of collaboration Will our love survive to that golden time will your hand still reach out to find me will we still note each glance, each touch that guides us to our eternity Or will we blink and lose the sight of what was planned as love’s design will we turn and walk away from the world that is yours and mine Perhaps the future is best unknown each moment seen as a cherished token that combined with our love will ever be a bond that remains unbroken. When does a memory become an heirloom to be passed down from heart to soul when all the beautiful tomorrows become the yesterdays that make us whole [This message has been edited by Poet deVine (02-16-2003 05:54 PM).] |

Perhaps the future is best unknown Perhaps. Oh I enjoyed this so much, and what a great offering to grace the pages of the new book. |

Sharon this is just perfect.  --Elizabeth You can sit there and forgive someone until the cows come home, and it won't make a bit of difference until they forgive themselves. |

 (smiles) It all is written down in every sigh, every breath, every song, and every note you recite which makes up the silky tapestry of loves legacy! (kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous and perfect for any poetry anthlogy, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sharon, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

I just love how you can take everyday language and use it to compose deep, compelling lines of poetry. This is an excellent choice for the book, I especially love the ending... Very nice work, PdV. Parasite "Faith" means the will to avoid knowing what is true. |

"Perhaps the future is best unknown each moment seen as a cherished token that combined with our love will ever be a bond that remains unbroken. When does a memory become an heirloom to be passed down from heart to soul when all the beautiful tomorrows become the yesterdays that make us whole" I really really enjoyed this, Sharon. Such a beautiful way of comparing youth and life to being older and longing for the past. A wonderful addition to the book this will make! Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you.--Jesus Christ |

Wow, Sharon. The ending is like a sledgehammer, yet, gently. I never know what to say after reading something of yours -- you leave me a loss of words, and a filling of the mind. Wow. |
