I wish I could paint
the pain away for you
in colors of joy and love
so vibrant and true,

but I can only be
from a distance, near
to hold you closely
and catch your tears.

I'll gather them up
then water the ground
that it may bring new growth
until you find
that you are found.

Never to be forgotten
the power of three
but cherished deep
are sweet memories.

Hold them close
when life would feel all wrong
and hear the beauty
of you singing your song.

If I could, I would
paint smiles for you
in colors of red
with no shades of blue..

but,
for now,

I'll just say
that we love you.

I really want to care,
I want to feel something,
let me dig a little deeper
nah, still nothing~
my give a DAMN is busted. Jodee

I know this will help her to heal Donna.
A lovely gifted friend you are.

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

Gentle Spirits,
I really identify with what you say-I'd, too, paint the hurt away. Lovely you. Lovely Serenity.

hey sweetie...

sorry I'm late. I took some time for family and a garden and well, alright, I was going to bake a cake but I figured "why push it?"

you really are a gentle spirit and I appreciate this, your prayers, and your comfort more than I can properly yet express.

thank you
