My Wish May the golden rays of sunlight Wrap you in loving warmth And caress your gentle frame As it holds you close to its heart. May the sweet, cool summer rain Softly wash your worries away And renew your inner strength To continue along life's way. May the soft glow of Mother Night's moon Brighten the darkened path ahead And guide you safely through your journey Illuminating the road that you must tread. May the stars above that shine Purer than a diamond's glow Guard your precious spirit nightly As into blissful sleep you go. May all of nature wrap you In her tender, loving arms For, my love, my one true wish is That she forever keep you safe from harm. < !signature--> ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A.

Janet Marie~ Thank you, my dear. I only speak words from my heart. Irie~ Thank you sweetly. I try. Rainbow~ I'm not sure if "lucky" is the right word, but loved.......... Thank you, kind maiden. Lone Wolf~ I love it when I let my heart take over my pen, too. I always seem to get swept away in the words later when I go back and read it. I have to thank my muse for that one! Marina~ Thank you so much, my dear. I am glad you lked it! Love Ya All~ ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A. Woodson, Jr. |

Thanks to everyone who read and enjoyed this -- I know I loved writing it! Now, I have never done this before, but how about we make a challenge out of this? If you had only one wish to make, what would it be????? < !signature--> ~you reached inside, you touched my heart, and I am all the better for it~ Terry A.

Terry, I truly love your work, and look forward to everything you do. This one is definitely no exception. You write straight from the heart - which should be the only way to write. 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 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
