The magic is in your eyes, your touch, your scent It plays upon your finger tips the creases in your palms and the sun dappling your golden mane as a fallen leaf not dying but rebirthed into a new season tossed from its berth riding the wind testing time and settling upon the ground |

And, this..... yep, LittleOne, you know that I know this, too.... but from my Honey-Love, of course!! The magic is in your eyes, your touch, your scent It plays upon your finger tips Hugs to you, my friend, Ethel |

G'morning Baby You are just FULL of poetry, aren't you? Better n' better too! (I know, I'm partial...But it's true) Love you Susie! *great big cat that ate the bird smile* Umm, that was meant to be read as ~ "I'm wearing a great big "cat that ate the bird" smile (hmm, that's just as bad huh? Sheesh!) "In looking Northward, I see a light" [This message has been edited by wranx (10-29-2003 02:16 PM).] |

Excellent! Thank you for sharing. Place your hand gently upon the living Oak, and it will talk with you; turn and walk away continuing your path, its spirit follows you; become burdened and distracted by the stream of life, and it waits for you. |

Ready for the bizarre? Your lines here: "as a fallen leaf not dying but rebirthed into a new season tossed from its berth" Seem to answer these lines that I wrote yesterday but didn't finish: I watch leaves tumble to their death Noting their colorful descent Wondering why they don’t protest Or maybe I just don’t hear their resist hmmmmmmmm... Sue...beautiful writing and everything you two have been writing paints a beautiful picture of what it is all about... "if you won't let me fall for you |

It is obvious to me that love does see every single thing though different eyes, and that is a good ting SusieQ. |

(smiles) Yay! Oh Sue, this is gorgeous, sweet friend, know that the seasons will always cycle and a leaf never dies but is only brought back to life and love does just that! (kiss on cheek) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, 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 |

Sue?...sorry I'm so late in getting to this. I've been slacking big time and finally playing 'catch up'..or trying to. Anyway...yes...you've described him perfectly... but then you already knew that...smile Simply beautiful, sis Love it...love YOU...
