Love’s manifestation is not always fireworks
and Roman candles
Or the instantaneous ringing of bells
when you first gaze into the other’s eyes
There are no warning signs
no sirens of alert
No thunder claps it’s entrance
Love walks softly
with velvet slippers
into your life…

It can’t be bottled on display
controlled, or chosen at will
Nor can it be forced
or bought with coffers of gold
There are no contracts
No boundaries of human choice
No predictions are inevitable
It is a gift that we can either accept
or neglect
Love walks softly
Inviting you to share it’s path…



Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~

Oh but I have missed your wisdom and poetry whispers Sunny.  You know the woman in the painting actually looks what I think you would look like   Enjoyed this a lot.

Sure, I wear rose-colored glasses, makes everything just rosey. Carpe' Diem

Sunny
Oh yes, love has a way of sneaking right up into your heart with padded sox, and before you know it you are hooked.   Beautiful words.

Love walks softly, what a nice thought. Now if only someone worthwhile would step onto the path.

(smiles) Oh Sunnyone, this is so very true, sweet friend, when I first loved Joanna, she walked softly into my life then pushed me away abruptly, and that broke my heart, but I believe in love and hope I can have a girl who can love me in return come my way! (kiss on cheek) I am so happy for you, sweet sister, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sunnyone, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Thank you Marge, and I like the idea of love wearing velvet slippers, soft, quiet.  It seems life is too full of noisy entrances!! Good to share with you, dear friend...~S~

Sunny, this is so beautiful, and so true.
You know that I know this.
