Poetic Lady, write awhile
And let your soul uncover
Like a beacon on the bay
The words some will discover
The light to make their way
From the seas of bitter
To shores of better days
where forgiveness delivers


You always wore your heart so true
Except you found his love sleeping
Still you had to weave it on a loom
Of smoke and silver lining


And there you are so gaurded now
your pain blocking the doorway
You lost your mission long before
He travelled down the highway
Poetic lady, write awhile
And mend the loss you suffer
I'm just a friend along the way
Who needs your tender candor

IF YOU HAVE TO JUDGE SOMEONE DO IT ON THE SIDE OF MERCY AND LET TIME SEASON THE RESULTS.

Thanks Celeste
It's most definitely not meant to offend but to commend her inner strength through it all.
She's as honest as this piece and shows her heartfelt feelings with a touch of class I'd say.  IMO

Eric

You & yours have a safe and happy holiday season.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you.  Joy is a state of mind.

Well done and well deserved!
