This was inspired by a conversation I recantly had. And I decided to post it here since Isis was looking for a little something on the lighter side. By no means do I consider this a great piece. I think I do better writing about the "dark" things I have experienced. Anyway, here goes...... You tell me that you are no angel, that you have your share of flaws. All that i can say in return is, "That is why I love you so. It is these very things that ease the fear of letting you inside. I know that you in turn, do not seek perfection in me. It is our "flaws" that keep us open and understanding when mistakes are made. We realize there is no such thing as "perfect". If there were, there would be no room to learn, to develop, and to grow. These are the elements which build a lasting, loving, and forgiving partnership that will withstand the test of time. Without these, there would be nothing to strive for, and nothing to achieve. You need not be "perfect" to be an angel, for i have felt the warmth of your wings every time that you comfort me And I have felt the wind upon my face as you carry me to places higher than I have ever been You convinced me to open my eyes once more and shown me things I might never have seen. So you see, my love Your wings may be invisible to most but you are an angel in my eyes." [This message has been edited by danni (edited 02-23-2000).] |

Danni, I do not oft find a poem that I can relate to that is not of a dark nature, but this is perfect and says so very much!!! I think it is absolutally wonderful and some thing that I desperatley needed to read today....thank you for a bit of light in an otherwise very dark soul! There is an alter ego which dwells in every soul... a-alibaster |
