Beauty, I compare all to a flower; Asking “do you know it is beautiful” then I ask about what eyes do miss-- ”do you find the bud just as beautiful” still the beauty of the flower remains within, I believe we are all flowers and buds; beautiful from the inside out. I hear that you do not think so? And each tear has fallen to a comment-- shallow are them who cannot see who think of nothing mind filled with sexual thoughts. Stand with me upon the edge of a mountain, did you see the beauty? Was it seen on our slow walk upwards-- or is it looking together out over the world I believe it was both, beauty is everywhere. You believe you are tied to the past, Be boundless, lay within the water-- let all memories flow through and around you, Become the water and the memories-- flow as one with your past don’t be the rock stopping the path. I am what you want me to be, Let me be apart of your memories; I shall be the bottled up water in the heart-- swimming from day to day inside you always telling you to believe in your self, And one day you will see without me-- and be able to stand upon that mountain with someone else, Giving them the same advice I gave you; and something more your own wisdom. |

Lee~ 'Be boundless, lay within the water-- let all memories flow through and around you, Become the water and the memories-- flow as one with your past don’t be the rock stopping the path.' 'become the water' ... I REALLY like this thought~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

"And one day you will see without me-- and be able to stand upon that mountain with someone else," Something like raising children - hold and then let go. Enjoyed the read, RedStoneEB! |

If only everyone could look at each other in this way what a wonderful world it would be. Great message and poetry as usual. |
