Love Note #7

 
 
Boyfriend,

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!  I believe this makes our 19th year!  You have been my boyfriend for nearly two decades.  Wow!  We were kids.  We were kids holding hands in the breezeway and stealing kisses in the thresholds.  And now we have kids...three stars...three little shining ones.  The Most High brought us together and said, "Let there be Light!" 

I am sitting here reminiscing...I don't believe I knew my smile to be pretty until you spoke it.  I have a school picture from Chapel Hill in which I smiled without parting my lips...what one does when they are afraid to show themselves fully.  But then one day a handsome young man said 'hello' and before I knew it I was bearing my teeth in a innocent grin with a returned response of 'hello'...then through a wormhole I went and now I am here.  And with the ups and downs...the pain and joy it always comes back to that moment.   
 
Light as Life...from a girl to a woman who wields her gladness in a gap without pause in every greeting.   One moment...a lifetime in a hello and a smile.  One moment...the Light at the beginning of the tunnel.   Time as Relativity...as long as we are able to see the Light we'll always have the ability to return to our first Love.   Back to the Future we go... 

Love, the Great Light...cleft and let us hide our soul in thee.  Amen...Ase :)

*smiling with a toothy grin* Hello back at ya,
Girlfriend 


 



The sun has come.
The mist has gone.
We see in the distance our long way home.
I was always yours to have.
You were always mine.
We have loved each other in and out
in and out
in and out
of time.
