(Here is a re-post in inspiration of Dea-Di-Amore's "Florence" and Karen's reply "Still Remains" to her poem. ![]() Quattrocento By: Noah Eaton 1/10/02 I’m welcomed to your City of Flowers I’m walking down your alabaster bird-hatching streets I’m polishing the bronze doors to my dreams cathedral Opening them before you, my sweet darling Come, my love, I’ll take you into Ghiberti’s workshop Together we’ll re-establish the grace of Donatello We’ll etch our loves fantasies into statue form Decorate our hearts with the beauty of loves art and soul Ever since you have revealed your love to me Timeless visions have been coming back easily You’ve brought the Renaissance to my heart In loves arms, we’ll relive Quattrocento You’ve renovated all my empty walls into frescoes You have given my dreams perspective My skies are now our fantasies Sistine ceiling Myriads of lovers dreams come true filling each horizon Lay me down in your garden of roses under your mulberry trees I’ll kiss your luscious moist cranberry lips We’ll strum eternities in G-minor Basking in the heavens afterglow we’ll cherish Ever since you have revealed your love to me Timeless visions have been coming back easily You’ve brought the Renaissance to my heart In loves arms, we’ll relive Quattrocento Like Van Eyck, you have braided rainbows in my skies Like Mona Lisa, you always make me sigh Hold me, my love, hold me forever I’ll make you happy every day and night Your love is so divine… Ever since you have revealed your love to me Timeless visions have been coming back easily You’ve brought the Renaissance to my heart In loves arms, we’ll relive Quattrocento Forever and ever and ever… I will always love you… "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..."

A well deserved re-posting, as it screams to the heart to be read and appreciated. Line after line of gossamer wording bound in heaven-sent loving words. You are the Master of this, Noah. Few come close to writing with this much kindliness. Your buddy, working his tail off, Jeff |
