Don't you remember That cool spring day? In the shade of the tree, We sat by the water's edge And discovered the truth About one another. The water moved slowly For the soft breeze; The branches of the weeping willow Hid us from the sun. How could you forget The perfection of that day? The grass could not have been greener. The sky could not have been bluer. My heart could not have been any higher Than it was on that day-- A day that I will always remember. I would give the world To relive it just once more. Now do you remember that breathtaking day, Free from worries or troubles of any kind? It was the moment I lost my heart to you. 'cause I want nothing more than to sit outside heaven's door and listen to you breathing... |

Hmmm...interesting...but, ANYway...a memory like this is something I'll never forget and would hate to think that my company at that point in time could. Just can't get much more perfection than that, ya know. But, I thank you, my friend, for your encouraging compliments...much needed, and much appreciated. ![]() sp ![]() ...if I ride these dreams to the Irish Sea, oh, even there, I know your heart rides with me... |

The perfect day, yes, it sounds it. I would like to relive a few of those too. For some reason, it just won't happen.. Nice poem, and lovely thoughts to match. Sandra |

Thanks, Sandra! Perhaps we can't relive days of the past, but don't give up hope for new memories. Just a thought... ![]() sp ![]() ...if I ride these dreams to the Irish Sea, oh, even there, I know your heart rides with me... |
