Letter Folds I can remember those first words on blue and the plzdntgo need, acquainting myself with the lonely nights and the darkness that swallowed the once outgoing me. Pouring words, letter folds, releasing the pain of loss, not knowing how much more would be following behind. A long journey to where I am today, once a Moonchild, always a Moonchild, although the naked thoughts have taken over instilling that love for words and those friendships still in the making. A sanctuary for rehabilitation, a paradise of and for knowledge, making my glass half full as the untold finds its way to a resting place, painting a portrait to eyes in the know. Time has been a gift, words have been the wrappings, chance has filled the stillness bringing richness to the face that stares back, mirrored each morning, rescued by the silent understanding of the letters in fold. M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Time has indeed been good for both of us...here... between the letters, and the folds. Enjoyed this, Maureen! " It matters not this distance now " Excerpt, Yesterday's Love |

"lonely nights and the darkness" can sometimes be a blessing - I miss mine now that I don't have them anymore. Enjoyed the read, M, and I'm sure many can relate. Helen |

Thank you for the kind responses...and yes Martie, I feel my glass is beginning to fill more and more. ( I guess a lot of it is in attitude and I am trying to keep a very positive one...grateful that I made it through another year. M |
