Within Our Spirits We Know Love There are lessons born from memories past so many things in life we have been taught regrets and joys mixed with happiness and tears but through it all, added strength they have brought. And here we are, each having a heart laced chambered in passion, in shadows of sighs in war of emotions, that play out their scenes serenity, in search of, each morning we rise. Stinging of tears, too often felt in pain hearts mend to move past sadness and sorrows, to see clearly through the ominous clouds seeking better and brighter tomorrows. And here we are, no yesterdays in play, the reviews of the past, silenced by time adjustments, changes pen tipped to flowing dancing to tunes of life, new ones in rhyme. With each written word, souls begin to heal yesterday’s gone and is held in the past, but the future will be that much better through experience our lives will be cast. And here we are, in skillfulness of words embraced in shadows, each night to suspend two souls to be guided, in passions new to be treasured, each, our thoughts we transcend. Having lived and learned, knowledge is power into unknown destinies we will roam, courage and strength living within our spirits loving ourselves, we are never alone. ~~Thanks to Donna for the start of an idea that we finished together.~~ [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (01-04-2003 02:29 PM).] |

Thank You All, I hope we got across what Donna wanted to...that as women we are strong enough to get through the hurts and sorrows of the past and cross the obstacles of day to day living and still succeed. hugsss M |

Donna and Maureen Especially this: "loving ourselves, we are never alone." Tremendous with importance and true...life has some hard knocks, but each can make you strong and more sure. Seems you both are that, and more. Great duet of two beautiful spirits. |
