 Little girl stands by the sea Gazing on the powers that be Funny how familiar this girl seems Wiggling sand beneath her toes Watching skimming rocks she throws Not a care to break her playful schemes... Little girl, I know you well Know the little tears that fell Watched your castles floating out to sea Did you realize back then That life can take, then give again Just build another castle from your dreams... Little girl, you've time to spare Unlike these eyes that only stare Upon your picture, hoping that I see Myself again, the child within And back in time my mind will spin To days of salty waves and warm sunbeams... Little girl, I think I know Why things seemed better long ago Growing up has altered many things I've had my share of painful woes But still have sand between my toes And just like you, I keep on building castles from my dreams... Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

Indeed, I wonder where the hope continues to come from within us, and then I realize... it's because it IS within us... and no one can Really touch it....or destroy it. |

Hi Ceinwyn, and yes, we all should have that sand between our toes...we need to keep that child alive inside, I think! Thank you so much, and glad you enjoyed my little flight of fancy here, my friend! ~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

Hi Sunshine, and you got it! Whatever we choose to keep inside is ours, and really can't be taken by anyone or anything until we are no longer. Glad to see you here, sun-sis, and thank you...~S~ Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart ~~S~~ |

 (smiles) God Bless You, sweet friend, and always remember that that little girl is always deep inside of you and if you live with the spirit of the girl in you nothing can bring down those sand castles if you build them further from the tide! (kiss on cheek) Yay, you are such a special friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sunnyone, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
