An "X", Your Signature I stopped today, to smell the roses, met the soft breeze head on allowing my thoughts to swirl and dance to the sun's warmth, finally bringing smiles to the many who waited. I was rescued by words of wisdom and friendship's hand, reaching out. I wanted you to be the bond that couldn't be broken. Your hands, to be the one that eased me into tomorrow, living, loving making dreams come true. I speak no more, my thoughts unheard, though words will escape from time to time. My dreams will take me to vision's past stripping away the clouds that hung low, feathering me lightly, with the fit of you. You staged me in your presence, marked for life, an "X" your signature tracing the path, your touch left behind, streaking me with the souvenirs of then. Those files are thick, collected memories, word by word, stamped and dated, reminding me that nothing lasts forever, that even when there is a loss, the tears that flow are sometimes of the happiness once shared... That darkness always follows the beauty of a sunset and that I now walk the shadows protecting me from the vague, that use to secret my heart from you. Today I stopped to smell the roses and met the soft breeze head on~~~ M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

I think that is the only way to come to terms with life's adversities...confront them head on and take from them what you will. Any whoooo, I'm glad the sun came out to shine on you... |

Simply beautiful, Maureen -- it's great to read you again. For some reason, this one made me picture Elise McKenna from SOMEWHERE IN TIME emoting to her diary regarding the loss of her Richard... Either way, this had a flowing serenity to it -- well done! -MVS You CAN make a difference: |
