 Just By Being...(thank you)

his songs, his words
are not mere trinkets
but gemstones
i wonder why
some men believe
they're indelible
entitled
but not him
he has learned to think
and he dreams
and he shines
with his heart
and the pictures of his deeds are in his eyes
a photograph of who
he is
and will always be
to himself
to family
to friends
like me
you know when you see
treasure
know when a man lies or stands
beside you and you breathe
his fine golden air
his grace
his smiling eyes
will make you care
for him
just by being
(thank you)

Melissa A Howells Meloo of Tilt-a-World


Hey (is for horses) this is for you Genius....lol  Meloo
I still remember the night I met you. A full moon sky. Your hair shining silvery in the soft
light of the coffee house. Your eyes drew me in. I'd never seen eyes smile like that before...so
brilliant, so green, so full of life and promise. Meeting you was/is a gift.
