I Whispered Your Name

I whispered your name sweetly to the clouds They said one as beautiful as you is not allowed For if within the sky you are to take your place Even the sun would be jealous of your face Together the stars conspired to keep you on earth aware of your beauty since the day of your birth They said to remain until you're old and grey When you've dimmed a bit in the clouds you can play They were not aware that your beauty comes from inside Here on earth it moves the mountains and the tide So now the world is more gorgeous than the sky If only the clouds and stars had just let you fly Inspired by Casarah's "If The Clouds Allow" poem. Dedicated to my Sweetie who becomes more beautiful with each passing moment.

This is brilliant and beautiful. Leaving your pages for a while equates throwing away refined Gold into the pacific. Now I know why my hands itch when away from your pages. Top notch mental exhibition and a powerful seven. Its been a while wonderful friend!

Your love for Mary is a wonderful thing to witness but no one sees what is returned to you as well You are both blessed in a wonderful relationship that one does not see very often This gets a big 7 from me Love Mom
