I Heart You!

A heart from you
A heart for me
A heart with your
Sweet liberty

I feel your soul
I feel your love
I feel your care –
Soft gentle dove

And we love orange!

For Michelle

Thorn in my Flesh

Thorn in my side
Wound in my flesh
Testing me

I wrapped myself
In cocoon of love
And breathed

I am stronger
I am growing
I’m alive

Overjoyed!

Everyday I am so encouraged by the wonderful writers on WordPress and the amazing community spirit. I feel strengthened daily by the support of strong, positive, talented friends that I have made. This evening I received the most wonderful surprise, and feel so overwhelmingly touched that I would really like to share it! I have to share it, because I’m bursting with the news, I can’t keep it inside! My daughter was excited to find a parcel in our letter box, and couldn’t wait for me to arrive home to open it. Her dad wouldn’t allow her to as it was addressed to her mother. Can you imagine our surprise when I finally arrived home, and it felt like Christmas! Inside the parcel was a beautifully wrapped gift, so amazingly thought out, I have tears in my eyes! A collection of not one gift, but a whole parcel of different items. My daughter was able to guess a book, and ‘something soft’. We opened it to discover a book of Rumi poems, a beautifully bound journel with Old Istanbul depicted on the front, traditional design table cloth and pillow set, a handwritten letter, and a card with the most gorgeous kitten on the front! So much kindness and love in one parcel, that I do not have any words to express the meaning it has for me. All thoughtfully packaged my dear friend Nia. (Am sharing with permission). Nia has a soft, graceful, beautiful spirit and can be found here:

She is also a cat lover! Thank you, dear Nia, from the bottom of my heart. And also from my daughter, she has already announced that she will cherish the pillow set forever. I am going to have a fight to get them back from her!

 

 

A Smile

A smile for you
A smile from me
A smile in all
Sweet honesty

I love you
And you love me
With true love
That was meant to be

Blessed

When my husband and I entered into a relationship, it was the most amazing feeling of arriving home! Gone was all my insecurities, and struggles of being alone. We started our relationship on a Sunday evening in 2001, and on the Monday I saw him at work. I had a string of failed relationships behind me and felt a bit cautious. I mentioned to him that he was welcome to visit me after work. He accepted and came over that evening. He stayed with me, keeping me company, not taking advantage of me. And every night after that he was there. Nine months later we were married. He has never made me doubt his love for me. He is calm where I am passionate. He is a carer by nature, caring for me, and for our children. Patient and kind. I was blessed the day he entered my life. And chose to stay.

Love Story

I found my home
When I found you
I found my love
When I loved you
You are my love
You are my life
You are the day
To my darkest night

My Six Word Love Stories

image

I love the day we met

Kiss me now; love me forever

Your heart and mine; beating madly

Our love created; we remain united

Above All

I felt envy
A feeling I did not want
Or want to admit
Or want to feel
Or want to own
And yet
It was a feeling
I had to admit
I had to feel
I had to own
In a world
Of blessing
And grace
I am bound
To nature
To self
To want
To desire
To envy
And above all
To love

Spread the Love, Because We Say So

Sharing the love from MACBOFISBIL 💝

aklsg It’s amazing how much love can be spread through a keyboard

The first full year of MACBOFISBIL, that wonderful acronym I created nearly three years ago, is almost coming to a close. It has been a wonderful year in 2015 and I have made a lot of progress on this activity that I once thought was so daunting I would never make much progress, but I have. Okay, so there are still no guest posts but maybe that will happen in 2016? Who knows what next year will bring to this blog that finally got some wheels at the end of 2014 and this year?

Today is unofficially Spread the Love day. It’s a way to break us out of the bubble some of us have gotten into.

Yeah, it’s not good of me to do this but I’ve been getting skimpy on reading others blog posts in the last…
