There is a Man Somewhere within a garden’s space There is a man, a heart, a face Who has not yet become aware That there’s a rose awaiting there Upon the windy ocean strand Someone is strolling in the sand Collecting shells washed from the sea But overlooks the shell of me His eyes gaze upward in the night To heaven’s garden of delight From earth’s small spinning dome afar He’d never notice one small star Perhaps he’s halfway round the world A love to never be unfurled If we should meet by gardens gate T’would be not luck, but lovers’ fate I walk along a city street Where someday I perhaps will meet The heart, the face I’m longing for He’s in a space by garden’s door Elizabeth Santos |

Oh yes - when you meet him you will know that he is the one. Very well done. This is a keeper. |

Dear Elizabeth - Whoever you choose will be blessed a thousand fold. You are an incredible person. The man whose love you share had better shine brightly, or be content to bask, because you are not a small star! You are one of the most wonderful people I have ever met. |

This is magical! If you find him, please tell him that he holds a very special person in his heart and he better treat her right or we'll get after him. |
