In Dreams
Deep within our hearts
Each of us carries the seed of a secret dream
Special and unique to each individual
Sometimes another person can share that dream
And help it grow to fulfillment
Other times, the dream remains a solitary pursuit
Known only to the seeker
But secret or shared
No matter what it might be
A dream is a potential which should never be discouraged
For each of us also carries within ourselves
A light which can cause the seed to grow and blossom
Into beautiful reality
We grow great by dreams
Dreamers see things in a soft haze of a spring day
Or a red fire, of a long winters evening
Some of us let these dreams die
But others nourish and protect them
Nurse them through bad days
Until they bring them to the sunshine and light
Which comes always to those
Who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true
That same sunshine and light can clearly shine from you.

My Pledge To Thee
I cast my mind
To the winds
I open my heart
To the sun
I pray for answers
From the heavens
I throw my anger
To the storms
I cast my doubts
To the seas
I give my heart
To you
But I keep my spirit
Close to me

I Am So Lucky To Have You In My Life
You aren't just an
ordinary person.
You are a person who is unique and special,
and who fits into my life
perfectly...
It doesn't matter what I'm doing
or what I should be thinking about;
thoughts of you come unbidden,
bringing pause to may activity.
I may stop to replay a fond memory
or to picture your face,
or I may wonder what you're doing
and send a good thought your way.
When you come to mind, a warmth steals
into my heart and a smile comes to my lips.
I think about how much fun we have
and how lucky I am to know you.
How wonderful it is that
I have someone in my life
whose personality complements mine,
someone who always brightens my life
no matter how dark it gets.
Sometimes feelings are hard to explain,
and people aren't always comfortable
sharing them.
That's what cards are for~~
to let someone know they are cared about,
to let them know they are
important to someone else.
the sender of this (me)
want that message
to get to the receiver (you)
so you will know that
this sentiment and these words
will always be current and true.
They are just a lasting and sure
as if they were carved into my soul.
~Barbara Cage
