Morning glorys line the path A welcoming committee of color From palest lavender To brilliant cobalt blue They all say You I feel you here You've walked these very steps My cells celebrate you nearness Denying the claim of crystal skies That you are far away I sit and absorb The sound of surf on shore And hope you hear the whisper Of your name. |

Love's an elusive thing when we look for it....but sometimes it's just there and damned if we know why. Damned if I know why, but it's there, among the morning glories, carved in the air like initials of the lovers who passed there, or may some day. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

this is just like the catch of breath of something so beautiful you don't want to breathe lest it leave..... so perfect I wanted to hurry to the end, but once I got to the end, I didn't want it to end anymore.....I wanted to hold on to the feeling |

There is such a lovely poignancy in your phrasing. There is such beautiful promise here. Through rubble and trouble and dark of night |

Just because I like it -- and you! Your voice gets stronger and stronger, and your eyes deeper but softer. This is true beauty. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
