Oh, how these dark clouds shroud those days when my soul soared free, as I became lost within the words of your verse. Each page, a dream written, each paragraph unfolding into a chapter sealed with a kiss laced in edges of happily ever afters yet my heart knows that there are more sunny days waiting to be written but today, today my soul is empty as I wait for your voice to once again leave footprints across the pages of my life, marking them with the brilliance of your song guiding my heart back to where it belongs within the rainbow splashed colors of your word, your rhythm and rhyme to a place where the sun forever shines and fairytales are no longer needed to shield me safe from all harm and I am once again held within the sanctuary of your arms. © dmsmith |

Very nice longing of heart. The following line of yours .... -------------------------------- within the rainbow splashed colors of your word, your rhythm -------------------------------- That image is what life, love, and happiness feels like when all is right with the world. Enjoyed much. |

"leave footprints across the pages of my life," Lovely. Everything about this piece is special, from the phrases to the style of font and the lay-out. Lovely. Enjoyed Janette always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same |

I know those arms of embrace. You will wear them well again soon Meantime you will wear your own with great fortitude and elegance in words |

This is how I feel today..and I'm praying...this was a beautiful outpour... The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone. |
