A Little Bit Of Summer

It's just one more night beneath a West Virginia sky
It's certainly my dreaded so close good-bye
Not sure how the winds will carry it's breeze
But, I know resting upon it will be moments of you and me...

They were few but, oh, so cleansing to the heart
Understand, if tears fall like rain while we are apart
Cause, I just don't think the summers will ever look the same
For, you graced these hills over and over again...

I don't want to see in the fields your missing soul
But, you have West Virginia memories to keep them from bitter old
And, if you do look back I hope you sometimes see me there
The honest heart of how much I really did care...

When days seem to hang hard on your sweet heart of friends here
Go back in your mind just to bring them near
Hold onto the hours you engraved your friendship within them
And, over all those miles, a part of you, will be sent...

What I'd give to start one more summer with you
To show you that family really does ring true
Cause, they are the ones who will guide you through it all
And, I know, without a doubt, I'd be there to catch your fall...

My heart I leave you with on your journey home
I pray, it's a little bit of something when you feel alone
Just promise me you'll take a little bit of summer with you
Knowing you'll be with us all in each and everything we do...

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Saunni, this is so very sad, is that your daughter in the picture? (BIG HUGGGSSSSSSS) I know how you share such a strong and pure love for your daughter and so many others, sweet friend, my heart cries out to you but I know everything will be alright and she wills ee you again sometime as her summer will continue to glow to you as the sun smiles on! (kiss on cheek) My thoughts are with you, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Saunni thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

What a wonderful, yet sad poem!
What a fantastic, beautiful picture.
This brought tears to my eyes...
As though a dear one was leaving for awhile.
Love this piece...and into my library it goes.

dancing with you in the summer rain~
