Are you out there waiting for me- Over on the Great Divide? Mounted on your sorrel filly, With your gear packed up to ride? Will you help me chase a rainbow? Hook your wagon to a star? Sleep beside me on the prairie- 'Neath a canopy of stars. Are you ready to go "yondering"? To see what we may see? Pushing onward, ever wandering- Just my true love and me- To spread your blankets beside mine- And on the prairie lie... Where clover spreads a bier so green, Upon us when we die? |

OH WOW!!! Well, if she isn't there is something wrong with her...I can just see you both sitting around a campfire while you weave your traveller tales..*sigh* **big hugs** Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

(smiles) Sooooooo beautiful, sweet friend, who can resist such a beautiful trip into paradise that your loving heart invites? (smiles) I love it, sweet friend, may you slide down infinite rainbows of love and beauty forever and lie on the prairie with happiness forever! We all love you so much, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet John, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
