When You Are Gone

did you know
your portrait
is painted
across the night
your face
is on
the stars
where no sparkle
misses my view
so when
you are gone
the moon
still whispers
your name

Yep, I know this, Helen...even though my Love and I are together in heart every second, we are apart a lot physically. We honestly do see and hear the whispers of our love when we are apart.
Hugs,
Ethel

Short, simple, and beautiful. What more could your adoring public ask for?

When the morning cries and you don't know why...

helen,
Can I steal that thought?

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

(smiles) This is beautiful, sweet friend, and I am sure on the other side of the rainbow that special somebody sees your image too, like a hologram, radiating across the ceiling, shining in the moonlight seeping through the stained glass window! (big hugggssssssss) This is another classic sapphire, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story

trying not to cry...
too close
to the heart.

Always, Alyssa
