Black Velvet

Mercy and compassion for all those
that know, how feelings can take you
places you never wanted to go.

Situations that go from good to bad.
Feelings that progress or should I
say regress from happy to sad.

Like loving someone
you can never
have.

Very, very nice. Soft as smooth as a baby's... black velvet ribbon. *Grin

(big hugggsssss) Oh James, this is ever so true, sweet friend, I have been there once already and I hope not to fall into the same trap again as I wish for true love to guide every hopeless romantic along the way! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet James, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Nice writing~ARH

Thank you gemjop, QJQ, Mysteria, Kethry, Marge, Noah, garysgirl, Kahlil, ethome, SharRose, Romantic Heart and passing shadows for the nice responses...beautiful words...
may you know Gods compassion and mercy if you have lost a love or failed to gain a love of your choice...each day is a new day and holds new hope and possibilities...
I met a woman last night that was wearing a black velvet dress...and I thought Oh, oh...
She was Chinese from Taiwan, formally Formosa, which I believe she said meant beautiful flower or something like that, so I ask her why they changed the name to Taiwan and what that name signified...she didn't know.  She has a sweet personality, we both share the same last name...she told me she thought I had a Chinese grandfather from somewhere in my past...I've always thought that...very interessting...James
