Through the tears I saw you there The heart of an angel shining through You took a moment to show you care As I found comfort in the love of you ~*~ Past the crystal droplets I felt you near With the arms of strength to hold me tight With a firm grip you calmed my fear Held in your embrace till morning light ~*~ Around the liquid healing I hear you call Soothing voice drawing me out Keeping me dry as the tears slowly fall Giving me your voice with which to shout ~*~ Beyond the cleansing fall I sense your stroke Removing the tears from my eyes Planting a kiss upon wings long since broke You lovingly placed a rainbow in my skies ~*~ Replacing tears for stars in the ebony sky You repainted all the scenes for me Upon these wings I shall once again fly Back to where the angels dance wild and free ~*~ **Everyone needs an angel or two** **Many thanks to mine** |

Holly my friend.....you know how much this means to me and to have heard it from your voice meant more than I could ever say. Through Your Eyes Through your eyes... I see much The depth of your soul The secrets of your heart Through your eyes... I feel all The warmth of your touch The gentleness of your kiss Through your eyes... I have love Sharing our breath Merging our hearts Through your eyes... I tell all My life given over To my trust in you Through your eyes... I offer this The respect as one The truth in love Through your eyes... I give to you The passage to me Through my eyes Mark Bohannan Thank you my angel!!!!!! |

Me too ! My goodness ... all this wonderful love stuff flitting around on ~butterfly wings~ and it isn't even spring ! Spring in your heart is what counts ! **Hugs** ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

~*~ Replacing tears for stars in the ebony sky You repainted all the scenes for me Upon these wings I shall once again fly Back to where the angels dance wild and free Wow beautiful and delicate thoughts... so serene, you have a wonderful angel, and a wonderful gift, excellent poem. This is the hour when the mysteries emerge A strangeness so hard to reflect A moment so moving goes straight to your heart" JOy divison |

Butterfies dc what a truly glorious poem. Angels are all around, rather like love, but we really need to see them for them to appear. Thanks for giving me a glimpse of yours, take care. |

a kiss from fate ... a dance with destiny ... on wings of a dove...by the gifts of an angels love somethings are simply just meant to be. and in the arms of an angel ... Butterfly finally flys free. ******** this is by far the most beautiful poem youve ever written... its exquisite and enchanting its exceptional ... but then so is the poet... and her inspiration. love you me There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ |

WOW! This is breathtakingly beautiful my sweet friend! My humble words could never do it justice. Certainly these words were penned by an Angel, the stars shine brightly for you my friend! "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |
