With just a few words You made me believe. And that might seem absurd For you could have deceived. But I chose to trust All that you had to say And found that I must Have your smile in my day. Dependence on you Was at odds with my style But I quickly knew I'd looked a long while To find someone so strong, So loving, so sharing. It couldn't be wrong To give you my caring. Yours from the start I'll love you forever. Take care of my heart For my lifetime endeavor Will be to see joy Shine from your face All my talents employ To make sure that the place You want to be Is close to my side. Through eternity This love will abide! |

It's cold outside, think I'll leave it there, It's warm inside, I like it here, Ate a biscuit, coffee's perking, Suthern dear, are you here lurking? |

jellybeans: But your visits are worth waiting for! *S* Thank you... though someone who writes free verse as well as you do has no one to envy! *S* ethome: Thank you very much. *S* Balladeer: 'tain't misguided... *G*... just unwanted! LOL. And I know the high esteem you have for that man... so you really should be giving him your sympathy for having to put up with me instead of thanking God he keeps me out of YOUR hair! LOL. |
