I think upon life and how I was treated in the past Of the hurts and heartaches The untrue words and unfaithfulness The unspeakable and horrible acts he committed And then... ~~~~~ My thoughts turn to the present and to YOU Of how you love me with a love like I have never known before A love that is so genuine and true So steadfast and faithful Unconditional Love And I think of how blessed I am to have YOU to love me and for me to love you My Love ~~~~~ [This message has been edited by garysgirl (04-06-2003 03:30 AM).] |

Hi Cheryl,  I'm really glad to see you here. I love your poem about the flag. Thank you for relating to my poem. Maybe you can put some of your pictures you are painting on with your poems. I would love to see them. Thanks Heart Hugs, Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (04-06-2003 03:36 AM).] |

Brad, thank you. I appreciate your reply.  . . Dixie, yeah, it's really like that. And, it's really true about the past, too. I never thought that I could trust anyone ever again, until I met Gary. He has been very patient with me for these five years. . . Sue, thank you. We both had been hurt and we do feel very blessed to have found each other. . . You're all so sweet and I appreciate ya'll very, very much. Heart Hugs, Ethel [This message has been edited by garysgirl (04-06-2003 11:56 AM).] |

 (smiles) Oh Ethel, this is beautiful, sweet friend, I'm sorry I'm late replying to this as I must have missed it the first day and was busy yesterday but I always love reading your poems and never want to miss one! (kiss on cheek) May the present and future be filled with true happiness for you, dearest friend, yay, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Karilea, thank you. Sometimes I probably "share" too much. LOL I tend to get a little carried away when I start writing about the freat love that my Love and I share together. . . Gemma, I miss you a lot when you aren't here, too. I hope you can come around more often now. Uh-huh....I know that you know about "unconditional love"! I like the Beatles songs, too. They say it just right, don't they? Love to you, too, sweet Gemma. . . Heart Hugs to you both, Ethel |
