It was the day of dawning, the moment of conception~~~~ Love came striding towards me, swept me off my feet, slipped into my heart unseen. I did not know nor could have dreamed that Love would seek me out, that Love would give ~~~~my heart its wings. How like a Phoenix I was~~~~ rising out of mystery's depths to find my wings had spread to cover you, to spur you on to greater heights, through spiraling clouds, towards awe-inspiring altitudes, ~~~~breath-taking sights. |

IvyRose~ Your pen has spilled my ink ... this is exactly what has happened to my heart~ 'It was the day of dawning, the moment of conception~~~~ Love came striding towards me, swept me off my feet, slipped into my heart unseen. I did not know nor could have dreamed that Love would seek me out, that Love would give ~~~~my heart its wings. How like a Phoenix I was~~~~ rising out of mystery's depths to find my wings had spread to cover you, to spur you on to greater heights, through spiraling clouds, towards awe-inspiring altitudes, ~~~~breath-taking sights.' I could not have written my own thoughts as breathlessly~ Thank you ... thank you~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Held my breathe as I read this - could only find one thing to mar its beauty - it ended. I never wanted that to come... jwesley |
