The sound of forgiveness Released from the lips of your lover After a bad spell Of your ill wrought notes of mistake Is the most glorious noise Squeezed between the pout Of a very meaningful instrument However words cannot speak The secrets of hands And carry less than a pound of cake Still, So sweet to hear the music Of the one who holds the sheets Curling Up on the corners Opening to release me Making me pressed To be such a kiss If two words bring such bliss Why do we resist them Or use them in jest? As I know the soul of my mate Would be my own in harmony If I were on the other side I dare not to dangle such a song Or ruin the resting place to breath It is in my honor To uphold the power Of the last note And dance on lightest feet Convincing you I am genuine Not another skilled player That will blow your kiss to the wind I may be forever off key But constantly getting better At avoiding the longest sound Of silence. |

Good Morning... This is the first post I have read today, and stopped..read it again...then read it again. The feel of this and the idea that first came through is deeply touching and would to my mind be a tribute your love would wrap around those hard times and know...the struggles and doubts are well worth indeed the time and effort to make things right again... As usual.... your talent captivates me... |

Dear Regina, you give us all new bounds to venture and thoughts to cross examine, you play your words as harmonious notes through an instrument, you work our minds to contemplate and question, our fingers to reply in applause. Very well writen Regina. Keep up the good work. Sincerely Rick |
