Open Your Heart

(song lyrics for Craig's challenge) Will you ever know joy found in love’s delight Just take my hand, let’s go You will be alright; you’re mine tonight We’ll walk on the shore and breathe in salty air Hear wondrous waves that roar We’re there; release your cares Ocean breezes brush past; you are mine at last You cannot lose; I’ll only kiss you if I’m asked Let me see inside your soul that’s so pure Just believe my love will endure If you can forget the past Dance with me on the sand and set your spirit free Become a part of me Please close your eyes, my dear Feel the sun’s warmth and the image will be so clear You will not lose yourself if you walk with me Open your heart so “we” can be *August 18, 2014

WOW! ~ I am so behind on Carolyn D. PoetTREES! I'm glad you left me that ridiculous comment about being "Old& COOT"ie or whatever the crap! FOR one, SO I can come to set the record straight and let you know you are beautiful, even Jessie (my wife) says, and her "Forever Young Ageless Wonder" butt hardly compliments anyone on looks! ANd Two, So I can come check out all these new HITS you posted. THis one IS SUNTANNING MY AMBIENCE. WE can dance on the Florida sand anytime, We can swim to ATLANTIS!

Dear JS, I'm ready to take that swim. Just need to rent some diving equipment if we're going to search for Atlantis. Gosh, how I wish I could actually see the lost continent. Thanks for your very kind words.
