All The Way From Arkansas I knew him many years ago but I loved another man, way back then, I couldn't know he'd show up again within God's plan. There were such hard times to endure before we could join as one, some of those times are just a blur, some of them are not yet done. Sometimes I cry, I won't let go of this beautiful love we'll soon create, though it may not be till one more snow, I know he's strong enough to wait. Be it fire or rain, I'll stay- though it should be against the law how this man came, stole my heart away all the way from Arkansas. |

You've had far too many hard times, my friend, and I pray your path be smoother... but such a love can make whatever comes easier, whatever wait worthwhile. *S* |

Dixie! You got there! To Arkansas! One of my prayers for you came true! Now there is the 10th to get through, but that is going to be so much easier for you now. I will be praying for you, every step of the way. Keep strong, and do what you know is right, no matter how hard it is to do. Love and hugs - Owl |
