As I walk along this sandy path
my skies are vivid blue;
Searching for my one true love,
but all I find is you.

The deepness of your bright blue eyes,
the laughter in your smile;
The warm feeling of your soft touch,
enduring quite awhile.

Helping me through hard times,
and ceasing all the pain;
Everything that once was,
now diminutive as a grain.

Every single thought of you
floating with the breeze;
Singing songs of happiness,
just like the birds and bees.

The day comes and the day goes,
then so lonesome at night;
As fast as a petal falls from a rose,
you come and make it right.

Reaching out to touch your hand,
you begin to fade away;
As the morn' comes, you have to go,
and I long for you to stay.

Though when I lay in bed at night,
the stars so brightly gleam;
Funny how these thoughts of you,
are nothing but a dream.

Jenna~
Again I am drawn to the beauty of your words.
Softly placed upon the page, they reflect a reflection of your heart.
Dream on - for sometimes dreams come true.
And even when they don't .. they give us a reason to smile in recalling.

Jenna,
Beautiful touching words.  I love this one!!  I agree with Marge....hang in there because dreams do come true.  Maybe not when we would like, but it does happen.  Looking forward to reading more of your work.
