"bienvenue à une saison de l'amour et du rire"

Welcome To A Season of Love

.......And Laughter

"le coeur l'a est des raisons, de quoi raison ne sait rien. "

The heart has it's reasons, whereof reason knows nothing."

-- Pascal

It's that time of year again when all

true hearts turn to thoughts of love.

It has been said that to love and be loved

is borrowing fire from heaven. I think

within all that fire there must be smiles.

This year for Valentine's Day I have

borrowed a few of those smiles for these

pages.

I hope you enjoy reading over a few of my

"flowers of love" first. Not too original

but how many ways can one express love?

Here are my four favorites..

"I have loved the pilgrim soul in you, and the

sorrows of your changing face."

"It is as absurd to say that a man
can't love one woman all the time as it is
to say that a violinist needs several violins
to play the same piece of music."

"My feet shall dance because of you,
My heart shall beat because of you.
My eyes shall see because of you,
My mind shall think because of you.
And I shall love..because of you."

My Valentine..always remembers
my birthday..never my age.
"Midi playing is Endless Love..our favorite song..then and now."

Love is...

Kisses in the moonlight,

whispers in your ear.

Secrets only two can share

that others will not hear.

                        Laughter in the morning,
                         a hug to start the day.
                       Tears if we must be apart
                      when works takes us away.

                        Smiles that light a room,
                         a gentle loving glance.
                    Moments that can fill our hearts
                     with thoughts of just romance.

                        Comfort in your sorrow,
                         a shoulder that is there.
                       A willing ear that listens to
                       the burdens you must bear.

                       Arms that hold you close,
                       a flower picked with love.
                       All these things that love is,
                        are treasures from above.

"I Couldn't Have Said It Better......"
