You Have Mail My breath comes in quick gasps, my heart to pound Oh how my ears prick up on hearing that sweet sound My eyes take on a very special sparkle and open up wide These signs of my excitement I couldn't even try to hide My mouth which has lately been drooping and rather sad Breaks into a smile and I laugh as if i were a little mad My hands begin to shake and I tremble as if I am cold Oh how I miss you, I miss having your hand to hold My lips part as if they can feel the memory of your kiss My arms feel so empty knowing exactly whom they miss The joy of signing on and seeing that I have some post Hoping desperately that it's from whom I want it most I fear the moment of discovering that the sender isn't you This feeling of desolation it cuts me through and through My head that has for those brief moments lifted up high Sinks into sadness and my heart begins again to softly cry This waiting is something I really believed that I could do All I can hope is that your love for me will stay ever true I'll continue to wait in my own and rather lonely world My love will be like a rose with its petals tightly furled Eventually this time will pass by and become my yesterday Others may try but they're simply not you, what can I say You may think I'm silly to believe in a love that is true But it doesn't matter what others say because I love you Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning [This message has been edited by Marsha (edited 11-20-2000).] |

Marsha, give you a thought, and you make it into a dream come true... {~,^} Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Nothing like receiving mail from the one that holds your heart and I know how you feel when the wait for snail mail keeps the anticipation lingering. Wonderful write from you my friend and president. Hope your mailbag holds for you what you are waiting for and that the holding of hands is soon back to you as well. |

Kethry, Thanks love, my time will come, and I'll just keep holding on until it does.  Kari, Well, you had the thought first love, and I still say the original is far better. What's that saying imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Take care M M Tier, thank you here's hoping. Charisma, thank you it is isn't it. (The film is really good and I did enjoy it)  Mark my friend, Mmmm it's one of those things that my mam was always saying, that patience is a virtue. Still I never had any then and I think I've got even less now. Of course it may be that the letter that I'm waiting for disappeared when we were flooded here. I do know that the Post Office was under several feet of water, so who knows. I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that I'm one of the lucky ones, won't I!  Take care Mushy Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

'Deer, sorry, you must have slipped in while I was replying. Thank you very muchly. I do appreciate it so very much. As long as the admiration isn't from anyone who works in a hospital. I know I'm bias but then I would be. Take care Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
