Just Me & You Tonight, this Friday, it is just me and you, this calm night, with thundering rain having passed, only lingering droplets of tears, the sun, returned to earth, to somewhere on this globe that you’ve touched before. So much having occurred, so brutal were the earlier hours, when I heard the crow call, when lies were told, when I thought my heart had collapsed at least twice. But then, there you were, to lift me once again, with tender words, of always, and know, and love, making me whole, once more. Moments slip-slide away; me, centering again once more, into you… how like this you are, kind, forgiving, so willing to ease all pains… and I ask, once again, if you would forgive me, my vices, and then, when you touched a finger onto my thoughts, gently whispering all is forgiven, for I gave my promise… and I feel your smile. How it fills me, relieving backwards, have would I thoughts ~ friends of words again seeking… they have to find their own way… then? I leave this note, noting with all sincerity, that I failed to capitalize You. ~*~ May you all find a special peace within, This Easter. Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen? Keeping in mind, I must stand close... |

Touching indeed are your words. And always they enrich my life and fill my heart. Happy Easter Karilea. Thinking of you this week-end. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

when you touched a finger onto my thoughts, gently whispering all is forgiven, for I gave my promise… and I feel your smile. Oh yes, Karilea.....to be able to "feel" someones smile is really special. Hugs, Ethel |

Karilea, this piece held a breath-taking beauty about it ... a whisper as if you were talking and reaching out to someone individually and yet, everyone at the same time. Just lovely - a wonderful write. Happy Easter to you! Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

Beautiful Karilea, very warm and comforting. Maree Beauty of the world which is soon to perish has two edges, one of laughter and one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. |

I knew that this would be a very intimate piece of writing by the title "Just Me & You". Gentle, open and honest writing, Dear Ball Solar Light. Linda |
