Shelter

Been sitting here watching life pass me by.
Maybe I should get shelter from all this rain.
How do I get you off my mind, this time?
You brought me to life with all your love.
The likeness of you flows thru me like a butterfly.
I smell your scent in the air I breathe.
For it is unto you I become whole in this life.
Everything makes sense when I'm with you. 



Another old one 2/14/ 1999  Sun.

Excellent and profound. You have that unique skill of beating the peak. This is a wonderful stuff, always beating our expectation. Can wait to jump to your next page.

Debbie, I did see this before. You make connections to all the senses and the relationship among your creative ideas is absolutely thrilling.

Debbie, no, I don't use crystals but I would love to try them! I did use a needle hanging from a string over my belly when I was pregnant and it was correct on the baby's sex! (the string either goes back and forth or goes in a circular motion) Please keep me up on any new poems you post and thanks for reading so many of mine

I sure like seeing this oldie because it's a goodie!! 1999, huh? REmember dear Prince and party like it's 1999. Wish I was back in that year. It was a really good year as I recall, and I was so YOUNG LOOKING! Let me see if there is at least one other poem up that I have not viewed yet! Oh, and before I forget. I am glad you got the owl. I was hoping for the owl myself and then got a dang turtle. hahaha (I'm not even slow)
