Dear Weaver of Dreams, some believe that dreams are the true reality, and what we are living is the dream... Whatever dreams may be, you are a master of weaving them. Love & Eternal Light, Linda |

Sharon You know I believe that love lives on....it is obvious that Willow likes to be with you as much as you do, with her. How wonderful that is!! Your Willow poems are always so beautiful! |

Mysteria...she will ever cling to your heart, and through your gifts, visit us in dream, as well. This is gorgeous...just the right words to go with the right picture. Priceless! |

All the while I could swear I feel your arms about me keeping me warm, Yet I know I am just a dream weaver. But if those woven dreams bring comfort... may your loom never falter. *S* Beautiful!! |

Maybe we all have dream weavers? "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

Stop calling yourself names on my IM. Not only did I find this lovely, but it reminded me of a dream I would have forgotten had it not been for you--I dreamed I made love to Robert DeNiro! (hope I wasn't noisy--the window was open too) Your willow poetry is more than just a dream--you two have melded now. but you knew that. |

Thank you for your kind responses. You know after a time you realize a lot of the person you are missing so terribly has actually become part of you. It is a conscious or even unconscious choice we seem to keep them alive through your memory of them, or simply let them go. It is more fun to keep them close. Kit bought me a poster for Christmas I have put into a frame, because she thought it looked like a combination of Willow and me. It turned out she bought my favorite piece of fairy art, and she never even knew it. Care to see it? Here she is - and this actually looks like Willow (only she had way longer hair.) The piece of art is done by Edward Hughes, in 1908. I love her! The poster has this below it, "Dreams Are The Touchstones Of Our Character." So really this poster inspired this piece, but I have "felt" her when I walk in the woods, and we just know she has moved in there to watch over us. |

What a lovely and flowing piece, Sharon. You do Willow proud when you write of her. Just promise me one thing? That you stay away from bears while sitting on that bench! I really enjoyed this, and LOVE the frame you put the poster in! I'm glad she was able to inspire this beautiful dream weaver piece from you! Best wishes and hugs, /Kit |

This is beautifully written, Sharon - Right from the heart for sure. There's no da-dumming either. This piece is perfect without it... |

lovely, words, picture and meaning...I know that feeling...I can go to certain places and feel my sister is there with me (sometimes I even speak to her aloud...I am sure I get strange stares) I have several plants she gave me while she was just becoming ill and I was thinking today I need to repot one and keep it alive. Have a Happy and Healthy New Year M |

Thanks Nan Maureen, whether they are or not, I think it is up to us to make sure we "believe" they are and therefore they are forever with us right? Chrislane - We are indeed all connected! You and Meeka and the "man" have yourself a wonderful evening won't you? Happy New Year. |

You know... I still have one of her old emails that I've never gotten rid of and it is a bit strange how I run across it. I don't think conscious or unconscious matters so much as hearts that have kept such memories alive. And... It looks like she's still doing some weaving and still touching our dreams. edit: went looking for that "E" and I can't find it got to thinking I could be mistaken. I'll let you know Sharon when and if I find it. best wishes, dale Speaking of ghosts, wouldn't you know here comes mine again... ~Rosemary J.

Icried when I read this. You have such a wonderful way with words and I could feel Willow surrounding you with love and affection. She lives in you always. "God has put me on this earth to accomplish a certain number of things.... Right now I am so far behind, I may just |

Well I made it through the first New Year's Eve since loosing my friend now a long time ago with some laughter in it, she would have liked that. I know she would! Dale, I doubt you could have heard from this person, but you never know? She was from Winnipeg, Manitoba, lived in New York and Toronto, and in England all her life. She was a professional dancer, then teacher when she died. She continues to inspire me that is for sure, and I am so glad you enjoy me sharing her with you all. Happy New Year to everyone! |

Quick flashes of evening's dying light Began to halo firs, Tall cedars, and majestic mountains That had been freshly cut Into paper silhouettes. All the while I could swear I feel your arms about me keeping me warm, Yet I know I am just a dream weaver. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Happy New Year Sharon. thank you. hearthugs |

Brother was it a wet one here today! Our Penguin Plunge for New Year's Day went off without a hitch, and I still think they are incredibly nuts, including my own offspring! Happy New Year and thank you for taking the time to read another tribute to someone who did make a difference - at least to me. |
