You've given me a thousand words that wrap me in love's blanket, then caress me in the stillness of the night... I look upon a face that has some recognition in it, and it always seems to whisper, "this is right"... You entertain and satisfy the longing that I feel to share a part of me that no one else will need... And deep inside this lonely heart, a flame of something flickers, as I take your gift of words and start to read... I've gently contemplated reasons why I could be thinking that your words are meant to stir my heart this way... I've been around enough to know that love has many seasons, ever-changing, ever-growing, every day... I've told myself to not give in to all the beautiful things I read, and not to give daydreams a place to start... But then I lose all self-control because I know your words are going directly from my eyes into my heart... So, I accept your gift of words, and from deep inside this poet's heart, I give to you the words that I must say... I need someone to listen, feel the meaning, understand it, though my words don't always see the light of day... And if, somehow, by chance our words should meet, and maybe dance, and compliment each other like they seem to do... Then both of us will have the satisfaction of believing that this gift we share is shared by very few... These words I give to you... ~~ To Live is to Give ~~ [This message has been edited by Sunny1 (edited 07-30-2000).] |

Oh Sunny, Now I know that your heart is as soft and as gentle, as one of my very dear turledoves. I am very glad to have stopped by this morning to read this very telling and expressive writing that you have done. Bill.... |
