~*~ When I fall down You pick me up When I do thirst You fill my cup When I do cry You dry my tears When I'm afraid You lessen fears When in the dark You light my way You turn my night To bright of day When I need love You hold me close Say loving things like "You're the most!" When I'm on empty You feed my soul You warm my heart And make me whole When I am lonely And so alone I'll hear the ring Of telephone When I am hungry You sense that too You'll grab a pizza For me and you When I need nature To feel alive You drive me to The countryside When I feel lost Can't find my way You give me hope And for me pray Your are to me An adoring fan And I thank God For such a man! ~*~ [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (06-12-2003 04:04 PM).] |

This is lovely, EA... It sounds as though you have a wonderful person in your life... and that's only fair since you are one in our lives. *S* But next time... share that pizza???? *G* |

suthern ~ Yes, I do!---and he certainly was worth the wait! I have dated several wonderful men since my marriage broke up and they remain very good friends to me. Each of them was very, very special--but something was missing and I guarded my heart because I knew on a soul level that that perfect someone would be coming into my life--and he did! We even have the same birthday! We met at a course we were taking and the very next day he phoned me. We instantly knew we were soul mates. We became the absolute best of friends and then so much more...  Sending you as much pizza as your tummy can handle! Huggums, Linda |

Thanks, Joe! Yes, he is irreplaceable! This poem actually makes me sound like a needy basket case, but in actuality, we are both strong, and independent people! No co-dependency going on here! --but we are always there for the other.Luvin' hugs, EA [This message has been edited by Earth Angel (06-12-2003 05:55 PM).] |

Julie ~ Now that makes writing poetry very special to me--when I can touch someone's life in a positive manner. Yes, feel free to send this poem to Liam--and say "Hi!" to him for me! Remember, true love never runs 100% smoothly! Hope all will be well with you and Liam! Loves 'n hugs, EA |

Oh, Linda...this is wonderful news..... I thought I saw an extra little gleam in your eye...LOL And, you know that I know exactly what you mean...... My Gary and I are two very independent souls, too. You know how we weren't looking when we found each other. But, oh, we are so glad that we did!!  Heart hugs to you both, dear Linda  Ethel (& Gary)  [This message has been edited by garysgirl (06-13-2003 01:42 AM).] |

passing shadows ~ Love can tap you on the shoulder when you least expect it! The evening before I met my soul mate, I reached my arms up to the stars and asked for someone to play with! God answered that request in short order! In fact, he had taken level one and we were already into the third class of level two when he saw this course listed. He contacted the teacher and she absolutely would not accept a student who had not completed the first level! His charming powers of persuasion won her over and voila! It seems fate was working at getting us together! Loving spoonfuls of cupid potion! Linda |

 (sigh) Oh Linda, this is just beautiful, sweet friend, I imagine true love must be the most beautiful feeling in the world, though I have yet to feel it and I want to be that kind of special somebody to my dream girl wherever she may be! (big hugggssssssss) For the last few years I keep questioning myself, "Is this my summer of love?" and so far it hasn't been yet, kind of makes me nervous thinking like that, 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! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
