~*~ It seems like only yesterday when I felt your flutter in the wind, gently stirring. A strain of pain that was here to stay, regretting all that we might have done differently. The thought of you jogs my memory from beginning to end, as those sun soaked days flash before me, spent on an island in paradise that became my life line. Hand in hand we made our way along the white sand taking our time as we dug our feet in romancing each others sweetest heart, turning hours into endless days. You caught my breath and took it away, drawing me in, forever in blue, and it saddens me to look back on those summer mornings that you've sewn into the heart of my ache. We were gathered so beautifully, like a floral lei filling the air with the heady scent of plumeria strung together in the sunrise of love until we threw it all in, to drift out to sea. And the promise of our day in the sun. ~*~ |

Lori, =============================== romancing each others sweetest heart, turning hours into endless days. ============================== And days into years. Memories pleasing to the mind yet so painful to recall. More of life's paradoxes. And to think they are a part of who we have become. Seems the outcome likely made a better you. Least wise, I like ya'!  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Liked this one a lot...  |

Hey Bluesy, Check your email. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

The "thing" about our memories...eventually it is the good that is recalled...the times that led us through life when we didn't have the time to realize that one day we may need to recall them to survive. You are stronger than you know...and will make it through this hugs and love Maureen |

We were gathered so beautifully, like a floral lei filling the air with the heady scent of plumeria strung together in the sunrise of love until we threw it all in, to drift out to sea. And the promise of our day in the sun. Oh, Lori, this hurts. It really touched my heart. I hope that things will work out. I'll bet he's having aches of the heart, too.  Hugs, Ethel |
