Leisurely walk the curving road between the stars Carry a spirits words….what does she require? Do you know, the color of her eyes? Do you know her mountains…her valleys? Can you let her dream, do you know what gives her joy? What inspires her heart, have you been there for her? Do you look into her core like your own? Place your wisdom in her arms and care to know Are you humble, not thinking of yourself? Detach emotionally and listen to her voice Change the blaming into a better understanding Can you share with her your joys Sharing the truth of your sorrows and fears Which can offer growth, moving beauty beyond years Do you have more fear of being wrong? Everyone owns something you do not Upon realizing the other’s lead, both begin to flow In movement with the music, gentle cues of rationale Do you hear her pain or think only of your own Have you heard what she has to share? Do you see her without touching her heart Question is, do you hear what your listening for? |

;should one be able to answer "Yes," it would surely be the essence of love. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

LeeJ To be able to ask these questions means you understand the answers or have experienced them. I hope you have experienced them! |

I wish, I wish -- that I had read this two days ago. I needed it then, and I would have to split myself into two poets, to say how much. |

This is one of the most wise writes of love and relationships that I have ever had the pleasure of reading.....We all have experienced much of what you have given us. Question is, have we applied what we have learned? Answer is, yes to some, no to some...but still learning, even to this day. Thanx LeeJ, you have given me the food that I needed...Now I shall share it with a lady who shares my life with me. |
