The Lady of the Lambs, a Shepherdess of Sheep

Her flocks are thoughts. She keeps them white...
She holds her little thoughts in sight,
Though gay they run and leap.
She is so circumspect and right;
She has her soul to keep.
-- Alice Meynell

You Could Say That I'm In Love..

A weekend of turmoil and happiness. So much thinking and stress, but in the end it is always my heart that is under arrest. 


In the living room watching the boys play Wii. Giggles tackled my stomach and smiles had their way with my face. It is hard to complain when you look at someone and you know that your happiness is embedded within them.


You are mine, and I am yours. There will always be the others that love you and can't let go, but they are stuck in a fools game.


No matter what, I'll remember you in the summer, in the sun, in the water, in the sweat and skin of hot negligently dressed days. I'll remember your laugh, and the way your eyes glanced to mine across the room. These things to be remembered are things that make the present worth having, and worth fighting for. 


You complete my laugh, because you are the beginning of what makes me giggle. 


Friends, in the beginning and till the end can no longer hide.


I hope you don't mind that I've put down in words, how wonderful life is, now that you're in the world.
