'catching Words'

Missing words that drop from the quiet sky.. Some you just can't catch and let pass by.. Others are like tasting raindrops in the night.. Or trying to kiss a snowflake before its out of sight.. Clearer days and clearer minds let more land straight.. Now its easier to feel the thoughts from love not hate..

smile -- i love this beautiful sweet reflection, "My Dear 'Blessed & Gifted Friend,' Michael J. Falatico.'" ~ you have such a softened Soul, which whispers so beautifully sometimes and this pituresque painting brushed amid a touch in sublime, is a keeper for the charts of, pristine faves; "Lovely, 'My Dear Friend.'" ~ love, christopher ~
