Faith

On a road that's supposed to be straight
my life has changed mostly from faith
a turn from the road helped me to do
a life once mapped out has led me to you
I see the stars and I see the sun
My heart is so full and nowhere to run
My words are real the thoughts are true
but most of all I love you..

Michael, believe it or not I felt the connection, but I did not want to jump to conclusions. Instead I left a long comment, on how we are all connected. I really felt the branches connecting between the distance of myself. That is why I replied at the end,(( I am sure this person some how thinks the same.)) It is funny, how when I see your name I think in my mind, "I got dibs on his poem!" sorry you are one of the many poets I look forward to on the soup.~I even added it to my favs~,..luv P.D.
