“SLEEPY MORNING” by Bill Charles ~~~~ My eyes open and I look at her lovely face, serene, peaceful, in the soft light of mornings glow… I smell the fragrance of perfumed hair, delicate with the aroma of her, and I am drawn closer, as she still sleeps… My fingers touch her face, and when she awakes, a smile greets me, as the warmth of her touch beckons me… I hold her closer in my arms, and we speak things of yesterday, today, and what might be. Her caring thoughts, and dreams she whispers to me, and I share another beautiful sleepy morning, with her… ~~~~ |

Dennis - I read your reply, and can only say this. And you have probably heard it already. It's called 'working on it', everyday. It's also called complacency, which happens when one doesn't work on it everyday... And if not, then it disintegrates... |

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Bill, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

BC: Your reply to Dennis is definitely correct, but complacency is a two-sided coin and both partners must work on it, not just one or you will get total destruction. |

Bill, this is a lovely piece you have done. It does take two and for over 31 years I have been blessed to wake up to a man that makes me feel this special. |

*sigh* keeping love and romance alive does take work. Too often we think that is just suppose to happen..*sigh* this beautiful poem gave me a vision of two people waking up and deciding they will love each other that day and showing first thing in the morning. *sigh* what a pleasure it would be to be with someone who understood that love takes work but is worth it. MAGNIFICENT, Bill. I love it. **hugs** HAPPY NEW YEAR Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |
