His Book many leaves have fallen to bring about this book of life, many leaves have rustled some crushed through ugly strife, many leaves have wandered along a brooking water’s ebb many leaves have been held fast by a silken spider’s web still he takes each leaf of year, of month, of daily drudge binds them oh so mightily so no year is without budge surrounded in his book of leaves, he’s left no stone unturned, he left behind his grieving, left no bridges burned he left behind his long ago, no grudge will he long bear wrapped tight in his thought, just so, as all was done with care though he dwelt in love once lost, though not sought, a second one was found he’s covered many a hard won mile of uneven, blood drenched ground so don’t wonder if you find his book of leaves he left behind and should you find the pages tattered no not that it would matter, but he wrote of you, and you and you for in his heart, you’re captured, and to the winds, you’re scattered.

 (big hugggssssss) The leaves will scatter, but His promises flutter amidst them, and as all the leaves scatter together on top of each other, He bookmarks all our hearts. (sigh) Wonderful poem Sunshine, you always write your thoughts so wonderfully! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet sunshine, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Oh, this is lovely Sunshine. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

so don’t wonder if you find his book of leaves he left behind and should you find the pages tattered no not that it would matter, but he wrote of you, and you and you for in his heart, you’re captured, and to the winds, you’re scattered. =============================== you KNOW you got me with that verse..... and you know I love this one...... yes....you know *S* This distance has shown how the road remains alone |

This is very beautiful Karilea ... I'm pulled in several directions as to whom 'He' may be, but that adds to the flavor and overall quality I really like this |
