Here's To Love

Everyone is forever searching for love

Some find it, then lose it, for some it lasts a lifetime

They are the fortunate ones waking up each morning

Knowing that special person will always be there

Through all that life has to offer

Rainy days as well as those bright sun filled days

When it feels like absolutely nothing

Will ever bring us down from our high

I often feel these wonderful days

Days of love, happiness, and quiet contentment

Nothing will ever equal them

They make up for all the days of turmoil and strife

I am a very loving, passionate man

Overly sensitive at times but that's not a bad way to be

If you can tolerate my constant harping on love

Then we will definitely get along swimmingly

They say it makes the world go around

Don't think a truer phrase has ever been uttered!

Here's to love!!!

Here's to the love of Dragon, fun filled, crazy! Doing every thing we don't seem to be able to do! John invited Dragon to the SouthWest to warm things up. Dragon got so excited and stirred up and ready to go... that the neighborhood witch came over and turned him into a Dragonfly, again. He was bouncing around all over the place so hard that, The house was actually a rocking with his 'I want to' dance! After being changed we put him in a bird cage til he would calm down and listen. Silly Dragon!

STAY SAFE my dearest Eileen! The ugliness that's happening around the world only makes our resolve stronger! Sending much love from across the seas! Even though I may not write often as I should, I constantly think about you and your safety! Love you dear lady... Kenny xxx
