If you look real close There's a ray of light shining just for you And in the sky a thousands clouds But only one the palest blue If you look into the night sky There's many a twinkling star There's one twinkling just for you And it's the brightest one by far When the summer breeze blows your way And brushes gently across your face You'll know that it has finally found It's resting place Gentle is it's touch Graceful it is with ease For it is you and only you It's spirit wishes to please So everywhere you look You'll find some sort of sign That your heart and soul is healing Throughout the passing of time Love is the life of the soul... It is the harmony of the universe |

Tracie~ Hon, this is very comforting. I trust Jillian has found that peace. What a wonderful friend you are to ease the loss of a friend. Beautiful. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Tracie that was wonderful, lovely poem. Gentle is it's touch Graceful it is with ease For it is you and only you It's spirit wishes to please So everywhere you look You'll find some sort of sign That your heart and soul is healing Throughout the passing of time ------------------------ "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. ----- |

I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by all your sweet replies and I'm on the verge of crying but I'm holdong the tears back. I wrote this for my friend Jilly who's husband died last week of cancer I haven't given it to her yet but I will when the time is right. Thank-you once again for all your wonderful inspiring comments I love each and every one of you Luv Tracie~ Love is the life of the soul... It is the harmony of the universe |
