Tears Enough |

What of this dread that all will end Before dawns new light of day Before my gathering work, undone Or with my children, boundless play And when I consider intimate, Simple pleasures, so desperate attune With all those nights I dream of your touch While roses, unattended still bloom And I fear the dark hours nearing When I imagine your sweet charms no more Or speak these words, but for only your ears "My dear, I love you!" Then at the cold door Of eternity stand, and forever alone, I cry Till tears enough the oceans fill, And wash all the clouds from the sky Rf |

'With all those nights I dream of your touch While roses, unattended still bloom' Some great lines in this Rf, and the heart, of course... |

"Of eternity stand, and forever alone, I cry Till tears enough the oceans fill, And wash all the clouds from the sky" I loved the theme, and in particular the above lines. Very nicely done. Susan |

'tis a briny tale...and mine own eyes doth add to the depths of thine ocean blue... ~ Warm hugs, EA |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Robert, I hope soon the tears you cry will be the ones of joy and will have rainbows come sprouting out everywhere reflecting the roses and daisies! (sigh) This is heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Robert, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
