In our times from long ago There seemed a special bonding Destiny seemed to play a role Reunion fanned the embers Sweet the hours of loving bliss Lonely hearts reached and touched Need recognized and answered need A moment out of time Now time and sanity return Reality has intervened Back in our own real worlds Though memories sweet will remain The simple truth is very clear We're better friends than lovers < !signature--> Hi everybody!!! Just got back a few days ago from a mini-vacation....I'm going to have a lot of reading to do!!!!  Pepper "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth."

Welcome back. Sometimes good friends are better left that way and not try to make more out of it than is really there but it is always worth investigating now isn't it? Lovely write to return with. |

Welcome back Peppermint.... This poem reminds me a time in my life long ago.... Some what of a dream that would never come true, in my case anyway. "Reality has intervened Back in our own real worlds Though memories sweet will remain" Powerful words to me. Well done ~PanDol |

Sometimes it is better to stay friends...but how do you know unless you try? Great having you back Pepper Ignore those who would clip your wings...fly ever upward...even if it means scorched wings |

I didn't want to appear to be nonappreciative of all the lovely comments from everyone.... but shortly after my return, I became a grandmother again and then....of course, in the way life has....my aunt passed on.... so I'm way, way behind....but I love all of you for all your comments, encouraging words....and just for being the great people you all are Btw, the one really good, and sometimes very difficult thing in a situation like this is to let the friendship remain....but it's worth it, yes, it is usually worth it...
