Somewhere... out there...

In this moment...

at the stillness of dawn
before awakening
of early birds
and sacrificial
worms...

In this moment...

when all is silent
save the hollow beating
of one heart
and the whisper
of 'still alone'
upon lips...

In this moment...

as the dream
surrenders to 'real'
and shadowy fingers
caress the center
of morning...

In this moment...

a spirit breaks
in endless wait
of a love
not meant
to be...

In this moment

(big hugggsssssss) Every morning I know this yearning, dearest friend, then I only remind myself that waiting is the hardest part of life and the most comforting part to life is knowing someone is waiting for you! (kiss on cheek) This is beautifully tranquil, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Vicky, thank you for sharing!'



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

and shadowy fingers
caress the center
of morning..."

this tugged at my heartstrings Mum again. I hope you're ok

There's nothing like a good fight with a horse to put your problems into perspective
