I do not know what will get me through
when it is time for us to say goodybe
but I will wear a smile upon my face
so that you won't see the tears I'll cry.

Even though my heart will be breaking
you know that I will wish you all the best
along with lasting happiness and joy
love and peace, and nothing less.

You will never see the tracks of tears
not one single, solitary trace
but you will still feel my heart
when we share our final embrace.

I hope that you will hear the sounds
of my soul held within this sigh
as I        whisper to your heart
when it's finally time to say         goodbye.


{for someone very special, with love...}


It's better than I could have planned..
it's made me who I am...
{Trace Adkins}

When we open our arms to life,
people can do little more
but come and go from, and into,
our loving hugs...

Very well done, Donna...now, follow through.

Donna, at this very difficult time for you, please remember, after the "good-byes" are said, you will have new "hellos" in your future.

Understanding and caring hugs,
Linda
P.S. And also remember that I am just an email away for some meaningful "chick" chat.

Beyond the clouds, behind the rain,
there are a thousand rainbows.
One is finding its way to you...
I wish you peace and new loves Donna.
Heart Hugs~

Please, please, please don't say this poem was for Balladeer or Toerag!  Say it's for me!  Yeah!  ME!

This was a beautiful poem written by a beautiful heart.

Donna,

God...this aches. I wish for you love
and happiness. I know it doesn't seem
like that will happen right now, but it
will. Hugs to you sweet lady!

Take care
Amy

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"
