"About You" The songs I sing, the words I write the how and when, the where and why they’re all about you. The caress of the wind, the kiss of the sun my ups, my downs, my laughter and my frowns, they’re all about you. The days, the nights, the quiet afternoons my past, my future, my present they’re all about you. The mistakes, the victories, my dreams, my desires and my schemes they’re all about you. The laughter, the joy, the tears, the pain my heart, my soul, my breath, my very being all of them ... they’re all about you. |

Can't beat this for a lover's poem. The verses combine to give the reader an overall view of love personified. It just doesn't get any better than this. ~ My grandmother is over eighty and still doesn't need glasses. Drinks right out of the bottle. ~ |

That he was Michael and I love him so. I'm happy his suffering is over and I know that now he waits for me. In that knowing I find my peace. "In silence this love shall live - CLE" I appreciate your comment very much my friend. |

I am so sad for your pain, Marcia, but I feel a contentment that you had such a wonderful man, and that you know he is waiting for you. I believe that I understand, if only a little (few people truly understand another completely, though many profess to), how you live and breathe and sing and wake up for him. I believe that you are one of the few people who won't be upset by my saying that my bond with my horse, my cat and my dog in Heaven help me to understand. I am not fortunate (or deserving?) enough to have a man of my own, waiting for me either on Earth or in Heaven, but I am very grateful that you do. Owl |
