How It Is

I was asked once what is it that I look forward in life; Before I would picture myself arriving home, See my little critters run towards me with joy Take off my shoes and have Spencer bring my flip flops. Enjoy a Jamaican Taco as the sun sets down, Illuminating the glorious western skies. Receiving a thousand licks from my furry friends All embracing me as their provider. Now I see Life with different eyes, Effects have evolved under the same skies. I see you and me sitting under that orange glare Our sights lusting through nature’s dares. The Miniature beasts will forever remain, With the exception that now they have a new friend. One with not much fur but with a great heart, The one that with one simple glance melts my soul. So now if I was asked again, what is it that I look forward in life? I would still respond the same way for the exception that now, You are part of my plan.

as part of your plan that is a lucky man for he is Blessed with your hand whether he be pale or tan and I hope that he will understand just as one like me can that nothing about a woman's heart is bland for it can hold more Love than a beach has grains of sand....this is very touching rahima....;)

The Love from my heart is extracted by nature and kindness not through gender. but believe me when i tell you that its been a battle to finally release this feeling. ;) Thank you Eric!!!
