He asked me when~
when do I love him
most...



It’s when I hear the smile
there in your hello
when the laughter
finds its way to your eyes
and the joke remains
private
and others look at us
wishing they understood

It’s when your touch speaks to me
more eloquently than any poetry
ever recited
and shares with me the secrets
of your heart, you’ve never spoken

It’s when your arms
find their way around me
and I become completed and whole
and make me feel as if I can finally
breathe...

It’s when your kiss knows
exactly where I need it to be
at exactly the right time
causing all my thoughts
to be still
and allow me that moment
of nothing except
me and you



that’s when

I loved this Sea...Love is best when it is simple....we try to make love more than what it really is...it is the small, but valuable everyday expressions of love that matters the most...and you have expressed it well!

Admit impediments; love is not love

This is so pure and beautiful Sue.
Love the opening soft whisper..
followed by the whispered ending.
Have a very happy Mother'a day.

Life is one great big canvas;
throw all the paint on it you can.

It is when the tide collides
with the shore
and sea
spray
melts
with toes
that sink deeply between
sand salt.

A wet, pure portrait
is reflected
in the dying Sun
as the final day
rests itself
upon weary shoulders
of two souls
bound
eternal . . .

Susan . . . that was beautiful.

It appears to me that you have found a man worthy of your love...

Softly sentimental and loving.

you've perfectly described the imperfections that become great miracles..., those moments that are priceless and forgotten, until they are no longer there..

wonderful painting

Is there a line one can get into to be loved like that? And what does it cost to go to the head of the line?

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
