...sorry Marge, couldn't pick one title so used all...jimmy When God Gets Done With MeWhispers of Dawn - Butterscotch Sky touched with crimson and blue, sun's first rays Across A Field Of Lilacs Spread flowing in waves of wind to the tracks below Mamma, Get Off That Train, I prayed you've forgotten to take my gift for you a Bakers Dozen of the things I've made a collection of hearts all filled with love. Be Not A Stranger To Love you said First Love – First Kiss always the best you didn't warn of the hurt I'd feel, the Sentimental Shakedown when he said goodbye. Please Take Me Back To Yesterday to the day before I heard the words – How Long Did It Take You To Get That Ugly, he said, How Many Shades Of Green will you eventually be? Mamma, Get Off That Train, come back home and hold me tight please tell me again how beautiful I'll be When God Gets Done With Me. w. james beard, jr.

Jimmy, this is absolutely slendiferous. A collage of cuteness, a myriad of magic. Write on Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Thanks for all the wonderful comments my friends - I find EVERYONE participating has written very beautifully - Marge has inspired us all. Just noticed too, I left off part of the very first line in here - it should read "When Sunlight Falls, Whispers of Dawn - ". Again, thanks and I look forward to seeing everyones efforts on one or all of the choices... |
