Cowboys and Angels Cowboys and angels Indians and gnomes Like loves swells Within our hearts, These things Fill up our home. Grizzly bears and fairy books Denim jeans and lace Sunlight streams Through kitchen doors, As I kiss Your smiling face. Harley pipes and wind chimes Neil Young and Prince Music played When we first met, Two hearts dance Together ever since. Arguments and apologies Sobriety and slips "I love you" Will always be, The final words To pass between our lips. Tombstone and Brigadoon Shootouts and songs No matter what Tomorrow brings, It's with each other We belong. |

A great and true to life love story...life always has its slips but love has a constant. Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |

Eagleone, Sven, and Paladin, Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. To-day after the terrible tragedy in New York and Washington, this poem means even more to me. Simple Abundance. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
