Your words stream by like summer rains in a desert arroyo deep in the flow I pan for gold – swirling each syllable again and again in search of those that don’t speak merely to fools who drown in pyrite dreams seeking that one nugget worth its weight in happiness |

Wow Jamie, I feel the ache in this. amazing you are  keeping it. Mee Mee Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

 (big angel hugs) Oh Jamie, this is just beautiful, sweet friend, it is not the value of the gold that matters but how it shines from the golden heart of a loved one! (smiles) May the smiles always cascade and reflect from this treasure trove of love, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jamie, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "You'll find something that's enough to keep you |

Thanks for the nice comments everyone. It is really appreciated. JThere is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

Do you know how much I LOVE this?....very much. Had to have another read M Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

in search of those that don’t speak merely to fools who drown in pyrite dreams seeking that one nugget worth its weight in happiness in this verse I see someone who values her worth, your in love with her mind, as well as body and spirit...that is a golden nugget my friend! Beautiful! |

Loyalty - it's a hard (very hard) thing to find these days Jamie. People come and go, and come and go, and come and go again - but you....well, you are always there. My rock. Thank you.  K |

Thanks again everyone... and So is trust, K. Though I guess it is easier to be loyal than to be trusting, since loyalty is a personal endeavour, while to trust requires we depend on someone else. A very difficult thing. still, JThere is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |
