Oh Love, Dear Love... |

Oh love, dear love, of water’s splashing kiss. Of grasping hands in light’s caress of dawn. Of breath filled rains in turbid flowing bliss, awake at morn before the newborn fawn. A step onto the carpet filled with spring to find the clover leaf for fame and luck. A penny thrown into the fountain’s ring as wishes form upon each petal’s pluck If not the coin found is lying heads and leaves upon the clover are but three Will love be found or stripped, one’s heart to shreds as stars arch down from out the heavens free. For dreams shall give away the wayward heart and pennies in the fount are but a start. |

(big angel hugs) Oh Barry, some pennies fall tails and some clovers just don't have pastures in quartets, but love graces even the most irregular things and serendipity comes to play in these special instances! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, 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 |
