THE ART OF WRITING IN THE RAIN

A Thought

Beauty has its own heavenly language, loftier than the voices of tongues and lips. It is a timeless language, common to all humanity, a calm lake that attracts the singing rivulets to its depth and makes them silent. Only our spirits can understand beauty, or live and grow with it. It puzzles our minds; we are unable to describe it in words; it is a sensation that our eyes cannot see, derived from both the one who observes and the one who is looked upon. Real beauty is a ray which emanates from the holy of holies of the spirit, and illuminates the body, as life comes from the depths of the earth and gives color and scent to a flower. Real beauty lies in the spiritual accord that is called love which can exist between a man and a woman.

Kahlil Gibran

Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty, believe in them and try to follow where they lead.

Louisa May Alcott

A Touch Of Poetry

PERFECT MOMENT

 

 

IF I COULD ONLY KEEP ONE PERFECT MOMENT

 

OF OUR LIFE TOGETHER TUCKED AWAY

 

SAFE FOREVER IN MEMORY

 

WHICH MOMENT SHOULD IT BE?

 

PERHAPS IT WOULD BE THE FIRST TIME

 

YOUR LIPS TOUCHED MINE

 

EVEN THOUGH IT SEEMS LIKE MORE THAN A MILLION KISSES AGO

 

THE SWEETNESS AND THE BEAUTY OF IT

 

LINGERS IN MY SOUL STILL TODAY.

 

MAYBE IT SHOULD BE

 

THAT MAGICAL MOMENT

 

WHEN WE GAZED INTO EACH OTHERS EYES

 

AND SAID “I LOVE YOU”

 

THOSE THREE WORDS

 

CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER.

 

WE HAVE SHARED SO MANY DAYS AND NIGHTS

 

OF LOVE AND PASSION

 

I DON’T BELIEVE THAT I COULD EVER CHOOSE

 

JUST ONE ABOVE ALL OTHERS.

 

BUT I CAN’T HELP DREAMING

 

THAT MAYBE, JUST MAYBE

 

THE MOST PERFECT MOMENT OF ALL

 

IS STILL YET TO COME.

“The minute I heard my first love story I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.” - Rumi

Quote Of The Day

“The reality of the other person lies not in what he reveals to you, but what he cannot reveal to you. Therefore, if you would understand him, listen not to what he says, but rather to what he does not say.” - Kahil Gibran
