For Chuck, someone very, very special to me. The Winds of Change I often wonder why, that spring evening in May the winds of change, chose to blow you my way Never knowing I'd find someone who'd capture my heart across the miles that night a special love and friendship did start Why a precious gift, as you, was bestowed upon me I'll never know for sure, maybe it was meant to be Whether you call it chance, fait, or simply good luck One thing's become clear, I'll always love you, Chuck So as those winds blow, in and out of our lives Know I'm here to stay, not to leave with the tide The winds may blow hard, but we’ll weather the storm Together we'll thrive and shine like the stars If the clouds roll in, and the storm gets a bit rough Follow the light of your soul to my heart filled with love Together we'll conquer all this life has to bring Bonded forever, together, on a dove's gentle wings By Kellsue < !signature--> Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill [This message has been edited by Kellsue (edited 05-10-2000).] |

Ah, KellSue~ Nothing as romantically warming as the 'winds of change' that blow us in that sure-direction. Beautiful, hon. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh, KellSue, if you only knew. This really hit home with me. That name. It gets me every time. Lori ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
