This has been a weekend like none other I have had before.
Gill came to meet and spend the weekend with me :D
It was amazing. It still seems like a dream to me.
I met him so randomly yet our souls seem to know each other already.
Here I am, a mother and grandmother, and learning what it is to love for the first time.
Life for me will not be the same since he is in my life. The path has been shown clearly and he has taken my hand to follow it.
Heck he even remembered the cup cakes, LOL
The only true way to express it is with poetry as some of you know. Here is the one he has inspired.
Ocean Waves
Before you my mind was awash in an ocean of sorrow,
But now I think about the possibility of "our" brighter tomorrow.
I see you on the horizon of the ocean’s waves,
To you my heart, soul and mind are but slaves.
You have captured control of my very core,
You snuck in before I could shut the door.
I fear yet love the wonders of how you make me feel.
Why is it you, what’s the deal?
How did you steal into my heart?
Why did I give you the power to tear me apart?
You’re special in ways you can’t comprehend.
Just don’t hurt me in ways of which I’ll never fully mend.
You’re the waves upon the sea,
Wild, untamed, yearning to be free.
You’re the wind upon my face,
Softly brushing against me, making my pulse race.
You’re the rain soaking me to the very core.
You’re all the things I dream about...and so much more.
You’re the lightning invading my psyche,
I open my eyes, you’re all I see.
Like the ocean on a stormy night,
You are unto me a magnificent site.
You’re the sun-burnished surf against the twilight sky,
You complete me...I know and care not why...
