It wasn’t easy to forget The way at sunset you hair caught the last light And in silhouette your face was hidden So that I could not see what your eyes were saying While you stretched with arms over head As if yawning out an old day with its exhausted stale Then breathed in the stars and nights pillowed hills It wasn’t easy to forget Because I looked for those times To paint on minds gallery images not Harsh like the noon stripped eyes That offered no shade, cast no shadows Leaving no place to hide but inside The shadows of my own. The way at sunset your hair caught the last light I was fooled into thinking you had a halo |

The way you look at people makes some of us wish we could fall under your glance |

Thanks for the comment Deca... we all see... sometimes we just don't notice. |

Ron Yes, Deca is right..I felt that too. You see through and into, but this one is with the soft light of love, and the edge of disappointment. |

Thanks Martie.. you are too kind.. we all see into and through, I think we just choose to ignore what we know, because it is easier. |

It wasn’t easy to forget Because I looked for those times Reminds me of times when I have lay in the darkness and willed myself to always remember the moment, knowing it wouldn't last any other way. Love this, Ron. And the halo...priceless. |

WOW!!! I love this one, sweet friend, I think this wonderfully depicts the experience in which we sometimes fail to notice the true beauty that lies within and how it just may flicker so abruptly our eyes can't register it and how if we can feel for someone we must be able to captivate these momens and feel the light of love rather than just the words! (smiles) This is absolutely wonderful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautfiul heart, sweet Ron, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
