I spoke your name aloud, With gladness in my heart; Your name found an echo, And brought it back to me. I spoke your name softly, With all the love I have; Your name stayed inside me, Never to leave again. I spoke your name to you, You smiled that smile I love; You spoke my name to me, And now two names are one. ©January 14, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

There is no more beautiful love sound than to hear my name from someone's lips. Sweet |

There is a great, great deal of power in a person's name. Using it softly, and gently, and with love is one of the greatest gifts. (how many times can I say the word 'great' in one reply? geeze use your words, nicole) |

Haha! Nicole, you were only trying to make a point so even a dim-witted poet such as myself would understand it. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

EmmaRose, you are absolutely correct. To hear ones name, especially from a loved one is special. Thank you for your continued support. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways ~*~ |

This was very sweet. Well written, like i read in some of your other feedback, it has the makings of a cute valentines day card. Yes it is nice to hear your name spoken by some one who loves you and you love them in return. Well done. *hugs* |
