Eternity Awaits

I ask the universe, “Who you are” Priceless dust from a distant star An angel wrapped in human skin Whose love led me away from sin Things in life we shall never know The beautiful depths of our own soul (Though that is which I seek) From the depths of an empty soul Broken and lost with no meaning or goal A tired old fool was led to the light You’re more than my love you’re my plight (The reason I was, I am or I ever will be) For your love, that which I hold Miracle stories should be told My love eternity awaits you and I History has written our names in the sky (Long before time began) We were written into the book of life Antoinette shall become Michael’s wife (Though so many times we had failed) But together just look how we shine With a love that is beautifully divine Its like we were born that very day All the past just slowly faded away Toni all that is left for you and I Stardust floating in a rainbow sky

Dear Michael, I am heading down to North Carolina for a few weeks on sunday for a much needed vacation and then returning to a string of book signings. It sounds like you are way ahead of me as far as your novel goes. If I am lucky, mine will be complete by year end. I started out writing a novel entitled 'The Mariner's Wife', and ended up writing one entitled 'Out of the Drkness'. I never know where my imagination is going to take me. Love you , Micahel Lainie

It's so wonderful that you have found a woman who evokes such love and hope for the future. Love the image of "Stardust floating in a rainbow sky." Nice work, MJ

We truely shine when we realize where we have been, created who we are, giving us the wisdom to seperate the two, and grow from the knowledge we learned on our journey to where we want to be......love you my friend, always, Christy
