You mean the world to me By Kelly You brighten my life like sunshine on cloudy gray days. You touch my soul with gentle kindness like the soft breeze whistling through the shady trees. You awaken in me, mischief like the unpredictable whirling of a hurricane. You bring to me such a comfort like the peaceful silence of a sleepy calm lake. You dream with me beautiful dreams like the magnificence of a beautiful vast mountain before you. You recognize life's little gifts with me like the simple beauty of a rainbow. You show me love that warms my heart like carefree days, with one you love, in a sunny warm meadow. You share craziness, spontaneity and fun with me like diving into a vibrant pile of leaves on a majestic autumn day. You shower me with happiness like a child’s excited face gazing at Santa’s gifts on Christmas morning. You ignite in me a spark that makes me feel alive like an eagle soaring high above the earth in the wind. You warm me with a feeling of content like the "happily ever after" at the end of a fairy tale. You make me feel special like the rarest diamond in the entire world. If ever given the chance, I think… You would complete me like the last missing piece in an intricate jigsaw puzzle like the kiss at the end of a wedding ceremony like the Amen at the end of a prayer… < !signature--> ~Kellsue 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 05-13-2000).] |

Wow! That was beautiful. "You make me feel special like the rarest diamond in the entire world " That's pretty special I thinks.. "Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying." Harry Anderson, "Night Court" *Cassandra Roseen* |

We all have someone that completes us. I hope you have found yours. "If ever given the chance, I think… You would complete me like the last missing piece in an intricate jigsaw puzzle like the kiss at the end of a wedding ceremony like the Amen at the end of a prayer…" These are beautiful words. I loved it. 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 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
