Linda, You make a really good point! Nice touch.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Earthensoul-- All that glitters is not gold! For example, pyrite! (fool's gold) hehe or the proverbial wolf in sheep's clothing or.... the list goes on! Have a good sleep tonight. I'm about to crash for the night---I hope my computer doesn't! EA |

 (smiles) Awwwwwwww, I love this, sweet friend, I know this feeling ever so well because I always daydream of my Joanna and see mirages of her holding my hand for the first time and lying right beside me on my pillow and hugging her with tears of joy! (kiss on cheek) I love this, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you!

This is like a painting that has all the right elements placed in the exact relationship to keep the viewer with the art piece. Lovely, alluring in and of itself. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

Ethel Your reply gave me a little chuckle. I am an artist and I was also a singer (of my songs for children---schools, company Christmas parties, concerts etc.) Maybe that's why you detect some of that in my writing. You are so sweet! No wonder Gary loves you!--I do!--and I'm just getting to know you! hehe Have a wonderful weekend with your man! EA [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (10-05-2002 12:12 PM).] |

Cher That's a good one! You'd think I'd learn!--I still keep getting sand in my mouth! --mind you, I'm a lot smarter now than I used to be---well perhaps " a lot" should read as "somewhat"! tehe ~ Here's to you and I keeping our mouths shut and our eyes wide open! haha Linda |

Chris-- If I "write these so well", it is because I have a love and a passion for writing them. Sometimes I can almost feel the wheels grinding in my head as I try and wrap my mind around these babies! Thank you and have a great day! Linda |
