When my time has come and green eyes finally close I would ask this of life, to please leave, just one rose. Lay it softly against my cheek so that I might feel that the love of one, at least was real; that my time here on earth hasn't been all for naught that I might be held in the heart of one and not be forgotten. If upon tomorrow it is my time to go I pray that someone might leave just one rose. {we do what we do and we pay for our sins, and there's no such thing as what might have beeen, thats a waste of time, drive a man out of his mind.....T. McGraw} [This message has been edited by Gentle Spirit (11-01-2006 11:00 AM).] |

Oh, dear (((((Donna))))), this is deeply melancholic and poignant. You are such a beautiful soul and you are loved by many, not only by one. Trust! I love you. Margherita  |

A simple wish, perhaps, yet containing within the sum of life's most desired yearning. CG |

Where did you find this lovely, little one? Buried in your ancient treasure of writings? It is so very much you, and so very much, Sealed with a kiss.... I couldn't help but think of that song... because when I hear it, I would have written this had I thought to do so... during such a feeling.... Mama K |

Thank you, and hugs to all.  Karilea, nope, this is a new one. Don't ask where it came from, it just came and I didn't fight it. I dunno, I thought maybe that part of me was in hiding now or something, but at any rate, it came....I wrote... grinz.  |

I find it best just to accept the feelings and write the words as they come. There is a tenderness in your words! "A spring shower was cause to run |
