My mind has become a purse
Filled with emotions and longings
Thoughts and images
All centered around you
Like loose change jangling around inside
My thoughts play off each other
Constantly reminding me of their presence
Perpetually stirring me from within
Sometimes I want to open my purse
And grab handfuls of coins
And toss them out for the world to see
To share my joys and happiness and love
At other times I keep it shut tight
Not wanting to be robbed
Of my most precious gifts
Pretending my purse is empty and cold
But what lies inside right now
Is so brilliant and bright
So very powerful
Upon opening my purse
It can temporarily blind the eyes gazing upon it
And upon recovering
Those eyes would grow wide with awe
Beholding glimpses of your beauty
Your love and passion, your drive
Your integrity would leave them hungering for air
Causing them to reflexively close the purse
Just to be able...
To catch their breath

Well we were in Marietta OH and it really stormed for about 30 to 45 mins. The lightning was really something. The water was running down the streets along the gutters, making it hard to drive. When we got back here on Wed. didn't look like we had anything.
You guys have fun on Sat. Love you all. Mom
