I come
to this tree
where you first told me
those words,
only three,
but truthfully sweet.
"I love you" is what I heard.
I'm leaning
against the bark,
and that spark
do you light.
The wind blows,
and my hair flows.
Perfect Place.
Don't need
any more space.
Years have come,
and years have gone
since that day.
Our tree
hasn't stayed the same.
It's gotten older,
and it gently sways.
It falls,
but it's still.......
Our PERFECT PLACE!!!!!

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don&#039;t stay down. When in doubt, don&#039;t stop believing.

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;
