It Takes Two Two arms to hold me close Two hands to touch my skin Two lips that kiss my own Two hearts that beat within Two rings on fingers placed Two candles bright as the sun Two sets of wedding vows Two lives now become one It's now 11:58 PM HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!! "I am nothing special, of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me , this has always been enough." ~Nicholas Sparks from The Notebook [This message has been edited by hoot_owl_rn (edited 01-01-2000).] |

Beautiful poem, Happy New Year! ~*~ Hell is not a place of fire and a devil with a tail and horns. But a place of torment because the light of God is gone. To escape this, accept the blood of Jesus Christ! ~*~ |

Wishing I could have been there with you Ruth......Would have made the day complete I have learned that the pain of a lost love will fade, But the memory of having loved will last forever. |
