Come to the edge, he said. You can see the sea.
I’m afraid, I said.
The menacing sky will soon pass, he said.
Will you hold my hand? I said
I am with you forever and evermore, he spoke with a radiant smile.
Together we leaped across to places beyond the horizon.

A lover’s dance is patient and kind.
It feeds your heart, soul, and mind.
It brings you joy and happiness within,
knowing that they will be with you
through thick and thin.
A lover’s dance is captivating.
Only if the partner’s heart
has not been fractured.
A lover’s dance has no mistakes.
It plays no one, not even games.
A lover’s dance is slow and kind,
Easy to learn but hard to find.
Open your heart and let love in
to a lover’s dance.

People may not remember what you said,
but they will remember how you made them feel ….!!!
What happens in heaven?
Will I sit on a cloud?
Is walking or talking
Or jumping allowed?
Will I be on my own?
Or with some of my friends?
Does it go on forever?
Or eventually, end?
What happens in heaven?
Will I play a harp’s strings?
I can’t play piano
I can’t even sing.
Who chooses the music?
That angels inspire?
Who does the auditions?
For the heavenly choir?
What happens in heaven?
Are the streets paved with gold?
Is it crowded with people?
Who’s incredibly old?
Will I know who I am?
Will I know what I’m called?
If I pinch myself hard
Will I feel it at all?
What happens in heaven?
Do I go through a gate?
What if I get myself lost
Or turn up too late?
Is my name on a list?
Is the gatekeeper nice?
Can you sneak in for nothing?
Or is there a price?

Like scattered petals fallen to the ground,
My heart needs the pieces put back together.
Your words erased my existence.
Now, I can be free.
For you are gone,
And, I will never speak your words.
When I was young,
You held me captive.
You cannot hurt me now,
Nor do I scare.
Love does not dominate
It cultivates and cares.
I will not ever have your love,
But I have someone who cares.

Medicine for the Soul – Great Quotes
I wish for a road
That is sunny and clear,
Filled with love’s blessings
And, friends who are dear.
I wish for blue skies.
And fields filled with flowers,
Fragrance and colors
To last seasonal hours.
It happens; I like
A mist on my face,
It’s a way to enjoy
Heaven’s embrace.
And soon, as time passes.
The season will change,
To welcome a crisp wintery stage
When life may not seem so sublime.
Most of all, I’m enthralled.
By a soft, fragrant flower,
That dances from Heaven
And sets hearts aglow.
I will never forget.
The joy and the glee,
I feel in my soul
As you give your love to me.

Indeed …
the smell of the salty air
pampered bodies, serene
savor the feasts of sous chefs
walk peaceful nights
tranquil dark star-studded skies
soak in the breeze of love

Silence is a source of great strength.©LaoTzu
We rise up laughing with the light,
We lie down weeping with the night.
We hug the world until it stings,
We curse it then and sigh for wings.
We live, we love, we woo, we wed,
We wreathe our prides, we sheet our dead.
We laugh, we weep, we hope, we fear,
And, that’s the burden of a year.©anonymous
