he always shows her in the best light when he talks about her, we're just not seeing her though his eyes we're seeing her as she really is she exists in his words just as she exists in his life always inspiring, always alive we feel as if we know her and we're right, we do she is the one that exists in us all these are the words that we hear our soul's mate speak to us in our dreams the language of the heart, spoken in rhythm, and spoken in rhyme and so, we read the words again beginning as always with: By Bill Charles and our hearts are warmed and touched as he shows her in that light again for he knows that the best light for a woman is the light of love. . . ------------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person.

"For he knows that the best light for a woman is the light of love." Lots of meanings in these words and an attitude and spirit we all need to follow...James |
