Fortuned smiled on me back in November 1999, I met a wonderful man right here in Passions, A man who has changed my destiny, A man who's friendship helps set my spirit free. It's only been eight months, But in that time alone, We have shared our lives and histories, Two similar souls - the kindred zone. Never before have I been so understood, And never again will I know such a friendship, It's much more than best friends, It is a soul's kinship. Always a shoulder for support, Always an encouraging word, A meeting of the minds, Some would call absurd. Intelligent, loyal and loving, Hell I couldn't ask for more, So this is my thankyou to him, For never wanting to shut the door. Thankyou hon for being there, A similar soul only a heartbeat away, And with every foundation stone laid, You're a little less further away. My kindred, there will always be a place for you in this heart........................ I'll tell you this...... No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn..... ~Isis~ (Goddess - Sovereign of the Spirit) |

Isis - the world isn't so heavy when there's two sets of shoulders to carry it - I'm so happy for you that you've found the other half of your soul. This is a lovely poem. |

A wonderful tribute to what is obviously a wonderful friendship. May your friendship continue to blossom. God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |
