I awoke this morning < !signature-->feelin happy. A deep down, warm, pervading happiness. As You are always my first thought of the day, I knew it was a gift, and I thanked You. Then I sat in my garden to write this poem, amongst all this delicious beauty, and I thanked You. The windchimes are singing and so is my heart. Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. ell [This message has been edited by ellie LeJeune (edited 07-10-2000).] |

I understand this feeling and expression! It's an expression beyond what words can describe. "If a picture's worth a thousand words, then it won't help me at all" are lyrics by Petra in a song called More Than A Thousand Words, and I imagine from reading this poem, the sense I got, was no words could relaly describe how you felt at that moment. Well done Ellie. Keep your heart close to God and you will have the words! Sheri. /¯¯\ /¯¯\ | ¥ | [email protected] \ Sheri / \Rob / Created by: Muad'dib \ / \/ |

Ellie, What wonderful personal peace and joy you possess, as your poem only begins to suggest to us. Oh by the way, for Dennis' sake I hope is was your Butterfly windchimes which were so beautifully sounding in your Garden of God's Love. David |

What a lovely garden you must have...a garden that is so lucky to have such a wonderful soul get lost in her beauty. You can never have too much fiction; reality can be such a bore |
