I have heard of shadows who's movement's create the wind. Of stars so mystified they cause their light to bend. Of changes in the tide that comes from the moons great heart. Of pleasures to this Earth that we have yet to impart. But one thing I have learned in my short time alive. Is how to love with my soul and share it with your eyes. Those eyes that sent me to you only to have to leave. My heart did break away for I swore we were to be. And now I console myself with knowing you as I do. My heart will grow with yours through out these years we bring. |

This is exquisite!! The imagery you created is some of the best I've seen...and this place is filled with masters! I especially loved...... "But one thing I have learned in my short time alive. Is how to love with my soul and share it with your eyes." Beauty and sadness all rolled together to make a most magnificent weave....wonderful work~ |

Michael... "...how to love with my soul, and share it with your eyes..." That has to be one of the most expressive lines I've read here!! This is beautiful! ~~ To Live is to Give ~~ |

Oh Michael. All I can say i your inspiration must be re thinking all she has done and loving you more with each passing day. You remind us all with your poetry to think with your heart, to really listen to it. I am sure she did'nt for if she had she would be with you in the way it was ment. She will love you forever, this I am sure of. As Always Jenn E |

Oh, how I was instantly pulled in by "I have heard of shadows who's movement's create the wind. Of stars so mystified they cause their light to bend." And once my expectations were up... you never let me down! Magnificent!! -jaimie Website: www.ladysixstring.com |
