Tonight And Every Night Fly with me tonight on gossamer wings of misty dreams as you lay in outstretched arms Sigh with me tonight in soft heated breaths that coincide as we move in one rhythm Cry with me tonight in warm quiet tears of happiness as I give you all my love To love means never to be afraid of the windstorms of life: should you shield the canyons from the windstorms you would never see the true beauty of their carvings. ~Elizabeth Kubler-Ross |

Hoot this was great and simply written!! What a lovely poem!! Bridgette "Creation of woman from the rib of Man: She was not made from his head to top him; nor out of his feet to be trampled upon by him; but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected, and near his heart to be loved." -Unknown |

Fly with me tonight on gossamer wings of misty dreams as you lay in outstretched arms beautiful and magical Ruth. excellent. ------------------------ "Take nothing but pictures. Leave nothing but footprints. Kill nothing but time". Baltimore Grotto "To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting." E.E Cummings. manic street preachers "Culture Alienation Borebom and Despair" "I know I believe in nothing but it is my nothing" -faster MSP "And you see, I kind of shiver to conformity Did you see, the way I cower to authority, you see And my life, it's a series of compromises anyway It's a sham, and I'm conditioned to accept it all, you see" six by Paul Draper. ----- |

this is breathtaking. each stanza flows into the next as though on the wings of an angel. beautiful work you always post that leaves me in awe...and as marge would say, this one is a "gem." take care. amy "Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends." "Fate exists but it can only take you so far, Because once you're there It's up to you to make it happen." |

How could any man help but not cry with you....So see you cry would bring tears to any with a heart Ruth. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. |
