On This Side I think that I've been everywhere that one can possibly be And, time gave me a friend within the rain For hours took my heart and months smiled back at me Finally years buried tears so I could rise once again... On this side of happiness I found the golden sea Never taking for granted the auburn sands laid out for me I treasured every step I was able to make it through On this side of happiness, my friend, I walked it all with you... I found freedom like no other when days found us together Even if it were our souls that led the way With all my heart I followed behind, forgiving storms that I did find Just so I could view your beauty along the way... On this side of kind is where I found to lay my head And, so effortlessly I'd sleep within each word you've said I held onto purity in it's brightest shade of white On this side of kind, my friend, I now glisten at night... One wouldn't believe the way that nature sure sings to me How I was blessed to learn to read the wind, my friend I know just the understanding when it moves across my face Leaving comfort with each gust that God decides to send... On this side of believing I found peace in each new dawn How it feels to wake in pastel light to start the day along For glimpse of you begin when the morning birds they sing On this side of believing, I found natures bell will rise and ring... It is only a journey that few can accept to choose I give thanks I chanced the bridge of faith For across the other side I touched love passing by Now eternity found us both on the same side of grace... On this side of missing you I found all the places we've been Praying that our dreams will make it possible to see you again I breathe hope that nature sings from me your whole life through And, that on this side of missing you, you are missing me, too... Saun Sauni  Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps [This message has been edited by Saunni (edited 07-06-2001).] |

On this side of missing you I found all the places we've been Praying that our dreams will make it possible to see you again I breath hope that nature sings from me your whole life through And, that on this side of missing you, you are missing me, too... very nicely summed up... enjoyed the read..and hope your dreams do come true.. |

This feels perfectly exposed in its concealment -- or perfectly concealed in its exposure... cryptic; yet self-evident... not easily succumbing to definition... a very stimulating write and evocative in its provocation... like eyes slowly coming into focus upon daylight's entry... -MVS "If you think you know it all, you have a lot to learn." |

Excellent writing with a flowing style that mimics ice skaters during a waltz. Perfecto! Mabe "I am not now that which I have been." |
