The Wrong Words the sun was doing what suns do and we were walking, talking, finding things in clouds and mostly loving, when a small quick frown crossed you and I was pulling back my word string, kites falling all around us as the clouds went gray Repost -- for someone I hope is still my friend. |

Sounds like the sun needs to come out again, and the winds need to lift that kite and string of words to cross the sky... well done, Sir... |

True friendship never dies.It may go running in the other direction, but it always returns. Let your words wash over his person and friendship will renew once again. See Ya Love Bon-Bon |

I know I lack objectivity... for your friendship is by far one of the greatest gifts in my life *S* But I would think anyone lucky enough to know your friendship would treasure it forever and never think of walking away from it... no matter what. *S* I like this repost very much, my friend... we all have words we wish were unsaid... I love the image of them on strings that could be pulled back before color disappears. *S* |

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Ed, if this is the friend you think he or she is, this person would definitely forgive, as true friends always thumb the string firm and when the kite begins to fall, tries to launch it again! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is wonderfully heartfelt, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ed, 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 |

This is so full of thought... reminds me of Joyce's style. Your thoughts are so fluid and the images re-create the setting perfectly. Quaint and beautiful, Ed. An excellent piece of poetry. Parasite Faith is a fine invention |

Ed, sometimes we do say things that we never intended to hurt. But, the person we are talking to can't help some things coming back to their minds from a hurtful past. I can relate to this from both sides. If the relationship (of whatever kind) is strong enough, anything can be worked out if both parties want to work it out. Hugs to you and your friend Ethel |
