~*~ I have a little secret, That is known by only me. No one's privy to it, That's the way it's gotta be. It's bigger than a bread box. It's smaller than a house. It's brave like a lion, Yet timid as a mouse. This little secret's kept, In a special place by me, But if you win my heart, I'll be giving you the key. ~*~ |

Linda, look what I found, just for you... Sweet Sweet Secret she has a sweet sweet secret known only to she except for one friend she whispers to, and they believe she has a little secret known since she was three... she saw the gift of magic when her mom kissed her dad, you see... she has a sweet sweet secret known between her and him first love of her heart and she believes the love of Jim she has a little secret known since she was just thirteen she saw the gift of magic in giving of a friendship ring she has a sweet sweet secret known between her and he first real love of her heart and the wedded bliss she'd see she has a little secret known as a young woman's dream she saw the gift of magic as the Lord blessed the holy scene she has a sweet sweet secret known under the heart of her first real gift of her heart a true love to be sure she has a little secret only that a woman can know she saw the gift of magic in the birth of a child, and lo she learned of a sad, sad secret and learned of unfaithfulness she saw the gift of magic gone and with it her marriage no less... time and time and time again she wanted to live a dream to have a "for-sure" secret a love that she could never forget but time took life by the hand and magic seemed far away she trodded, plodded on demand but still magic's song held sway soon alone, one day she smiled for after all, life was still worthwhile then all at once, as if by God's hand or by some piece of magic on command she has a sweet sweet secret known only to her eyes some one wrote the words she sought and caught her by surprise she has a little secret known only to a woman in love she saw the gift of magic in the eyes of the man she loves she has a little secret and she keeps it to herself and through the gift of magic his poetry graces her shelf |

Now, you didn't play fair from the beginning of this poem....The title...catches a man's eye so readily...(a woman's too).... So, right there, from the beginning....the deck was stacked in your favor... Linda, this is a beautiful poem, and I do hope you have a secret.... and no matter how much I say I don't wanna know what it is....DON'T BELIEVE ME!! OK? |

Noah ~ Quick, sing an angel song and it will return and then you can inform our small feathered friend that the secret must be kept. Hurry! Luvvums, EA |
