Near A Pensacola Bridge
By Ethel_GG

~*~
Others have their thoughts, of what we both should do
But of how we should live, should be between us two
Regardless of what others think, we are completely in love
Knowing that our magical love, is sent from up above

This love given to us, for us to cherish and treasure
Brings to each of us,  much contentment and pleasure
Like never before in life, are emotions we each feel
Our love we share together, we know is true and real

So when there are others who ask, are you positive and sure
They do not see the love within, our hearts that is so pure
Neither can they see the love, we share deep within our heart
Is the kind two people have together, that will never ever depart
~*~

For starters, Ethel Mae, I love your photo and I can pretend my friend, that I am standing at your side enjoying the magnificent view!

As for your poem, it truly does come from your heart and I understand, and agree, with every beautiful word and sentiment that you have written!

~ May yours and Gary's love stand the test of time ~ and all the busybody naysayers! lol

Loveya!
Linda

No. In fact, make it a resounding No. It doesn't matter at all.....

Lovely picture.
Yepper no one knows the love that you have held within your heart. No one can tell another what to do. I do admit I ask my friend of her new friendship (shy lady) out of concern for her. Not wanting her to get hurt. But in the long run it is her decision.
Good one.
Love Bon-Bon

. . . and one day it happened . . .

since birth I wandered
dusty expanse
searching
for God
only to find

Him

I traveled onward . . .

forging through life
half-baked philosophy
misunderstood I
felt so . . .

lost

within myself then this

happened

I didn't ask for it
nor plan for it
but I am here, now
finally

and only now
am I able to place
that missing piece
a puzzle began
as a child
setting it

ohhh so softly

just right there

-----------------------------------------


Ethel, yes, I do know and
what is inside the heart and soul
is all that matters
There is no age with love  . . .
there is only feel
*smile*
Love You Much
thank you for this
Sue

I used to think it only mattered that they think. Then I thought again. I don't think anybody worries much farther past their own nose to think too long about much else. So...grins?whaddya say ethel? Buy ya a "think?"

chuckles, hugs and winks.

thank you for this one.

I think.

Nope. I know.

(at least I think I do...)

I had a dream last night
you came to me on silver wings of light
I flew away with you in painted sky
Was it real
Is it what you see,touch or feel

a peaceful picture and a poem seeking that same peace in one's decision

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Ethel, your heart spills out such sincerity and honesty in this heartfelt write, sweet friend, I believe it is important to have friends and hear their advice, but when it comes to love, one must follow his or her own heart for the heart is what makes love possible and to have another enforce it is like consuming ones life! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, the picture is sooooooooo gorgeous, I love the lakes, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
