“IN THE FOREST” by Bill Charles ~~~~ I walked in a forest once, surrounded by giant trees… Mighty in their being, knew no boundaries… Serenity I felt inside, peaceful it was then… Felt like I wanted to stay, lay me down in the glen… I waited for you there, many hours did pass… You said you’d come to me, hurry, my heart is of glass… ~~~~ |

*sigh* Oh gosh...I saw this vision and felt it too.......In the forest...the mystical forest where fairies make the magic drink of love...*sigh* I am sure she will come to drink from the glass of your love....This is beautiful, Bill. **big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Bill darling boy I suppose you think that I’m going to praise you to the skies? Hmmm? …….. Well, of course I am, this is utterly utterly wonderful as YOU very well know. How did you do this how many layers of meaning are there? I suspect so many that I could keep revealing more at each new reading. I shall be reading this a lot, into my library with you. This is really fabulous writing sometimes when you don’t expect it you see true beauty this is it. Beauty has a name and it's creater is Bill Absolutely first class writing Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |

lay me down in the glen..have always wanted to find a place like that..on a mountain top or river valley..spread a blanket and spend time with someone special...some day I will Bill..and you, too will have that peaceful loving moment also. A beautiful poem as always,they touch me. Maureen |

Bill, Grateful am I that I dropped into Passions this afternoon to read this wonderful piece. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |
