I heard your Tender Call It resounded in silence, quietly, softly soulfully, skillfully, rejoicing in my heart behind closed eyes I heard soft cry a mind meld of thoughts impart I felt your tender call You were there, so long ago, a heartbeat away in keen memory your words still sway to dance the dance of night’s long song wherein these dreams your thoughts belong Did I dream your tender call Lace strewn veil o'er silent shadows soft holding pleasant gentle of your touch then wing me upward, swift hold me aloft thy tender call is the voice of such I heard your tender call It sang soft, soulful sweet and true as it came from the heart’s heart of you ably it came from behind the refrain that I would hear it, again and again When you tenderly called my name ~*~ Reprised, in Memory, WY... |

Very touching, and soft. Beautifully written! A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

If there's a more beautiful way to say that someone is missed, I don't know what it is. *S* And yes... he is. |
