Within You are my "thought first" of the day keeping me fresh each morning, never dull or faded, as your colors belie the truth. You stand bold and adventuresome, while I watch you with arousing interest. There is something total about you that I seem to lack, but I am trying to add up to more. What is it that holds me to you, I ask, only because it brings to light those gifts that you carry, never wrapped or ribboned? An endless supply of acceptance. I praise you, because you are and enjoy you because you do and if there was ever a marriage of friendship I would define ours as one. We are a kaleidoscope of odds, constantly changing, patterns to color the moments viewed from our destinies. I have lost my edge, the tender of my words no longer sure if you realize the depth of my walk. When time spares us, I fumble in words and actions, cradling my thoughts, preferring to rise above them...if only And so I remain silent when I wish to speak and I speak when I wish to remain silent... at odds with the fall of each day. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Little Mo darling heart oh wow, this is truly wonderful writing, I wonder how you can imagine you’ve lost your edge when you can write like this. But then darling one you are ever modest. This is a perfect blend of thought and sense, a whisper of hope for an acceptance, wrapped in a cry of anguish for wanting such. I love it utterly, but then you know I’ve always adored your writing. as always Mushy warm hugs and soft smiles to stroke your soul today my sweet friend Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds |

Emotions that swirl and pull, tug and push, causing the stammer or still of lips...ending in a cherished memory birthing once again a smile... Your depth is awesome, Wynter.... |
