Why Should I

I have no need to search for paradise, heaven. To glean the stars for stardust, moonbeams and angels singing. Or for early dawns filling my eyes with beauty and colour, the heady sound of birdsong. Why crave the glowing sunsets or settle for fictitious dreams in the promise of night. Why hold hands with fleeting love, why search when these eyes hold all in the form of you.

To find beauty and paradise when you are with someone special is the greatest feeling of all, Daniel. I find great joy and peace in nature, too. Love, Carolyn
