Come now, rest
your weary heart
upon my breast
and I will hold you
until you feel
that you are strong
with enough courage
to move on.

Together we will wipe
your tears away;
should you need me
come another day

I will be here for you
so that you may find
a moment of peace
for your troubled mind.

Time will heal
your broken wings
someday, again soon
you're soul will sing.

Come now, rest
while I hold you
in friendships stay
when tomorrow comes

I shall watch
as you soar away.



{dedicated to Sis, and everyone who needs
a moment....of rest...}


Give me your heart
Make it real
Or else forget about it...Santana

Love ya lady~

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back

(angel friendship hugs) Awwwwwww, you are a most loving and compassionate spirit, dearest friend, I believe it is important always for true friends to take a moment to rest and breathe with their loved ones when one needs a hand to be held gently! (smiles) You are a wonderful friend to us all, dearest friend, yay, I miss reading your poetry soooooooo much and am soooooo glad to be reading you again, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Donna, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Ah goodness, such compassion here. Truly lovely and beautiful... everyone needs a friend like you. Reminds me of being little and curling up in my grandma's arms as I cried, and I'd get her shirt all snotty and gross, but she'd still kiss my cheek to wipe the tears away... that's love! And I can see that is what you have. Of course, that's no surprise.

Awesome write.
Always, Alyssa

I do...yes...most definitely. And I just found one.

It does pay, to shop in places other than the store-front...how often have I come to PiP, looked only at today's Open postings, and gone away unsatisfied when there were thousands of worthy poems just waiting for my eyes to find them?
