Thanks Guys.......I'm glad you liked the poem. If the man ever does read it hopefully he'll like it too.
And Only Nic.....wow......a 3,000 word report! Good luck dear! And remember, your school work comes first...... :)
(I'm really getting into this 'teacher' mode now, aint' I) :)
LOL, sure he'll like it,cuz you wrote it so genuinely!
I had the report done yesterday, so I can jump in any topic again!! (Although it is written in my mother tongue, it still takes me a lot of time... I'm glad I can finish it!) :)
Woohoo~ a great poem, Bonnie! You're born to be a poet... I envy you.
I love this line in particular... Man with the deep and soulful eyes of blue. A very precise depiction of our man!!
My prayer for Nic here too... I hope he can live happily forever!! (A simple wish... but not everyone can make it, right?)
ps. Sorry, I've been a little slow these days... I have to turn in a 3000-word report in two days, and I don't even have a draft!! So... see you soon, I'll be back~ :)
I am sure that a lot of people there have the same or very similar feeling. To protect NIC from the all bad thingk that may happen, to protect him from the sorrow, pain, exhaustion and so on. I am with you, and I promise that this evening I will think about the NIC /ooops I am always thinking about NIC/ but this evening I will try to send him positive energy. I am not sure if this could work / I have sometimes realistic and very sad mood. I have seen a lot of people to die during my duties, and I was not able to keep them, to protect them. Sometimes I am wondering to protect all living entities - OH - tis could sound crazy, but it is true.
So my promise is - this evening I l try to send positive energy to NIC, and wisper a short prayer. Maybe this could work.
Bonnie, your poem is beautiful....... I know someday Nic will say it in person to you. And thank you for the video. I have found the lyric because the text is wonderful, too.
Artist: Ray LaMontagne lyrics Album: Gossip In The Grain Year: 2008 Title: Let It Be MeLyrics to Let It Be Me : There may come a time, a time in everyones life where nothin seems to go your way where nothing seems to turn out right there may come a time, you just cant seem to find your way for every door you walk on to, seems like they get slammed in your face thats when you need someone, someone that you can call. and when all your faith is gone feels like you cant go on let it be me let it be me if its a friend that you need let it be me let it be me feels like your always commin on home pockets full of nothin and you got no cash no matter where you turn you aint got no place to stand reach out for something and they slap your hand now i remember all to well just how it feels to be all alone you feel like youd give anything for just a little place you can call your own thats when you need someone, someone that you can call and when all your faith is gone feels like you cant go on let it be me let it be me if its a friend you need let it be me let it be me

I just realized that I've been listening to my new Ray LaMontagne CD 'Gossips' and it has the following song that might have spurned my poem to Nic.....anyhoo.....here it is...... :)
I used to write alot of poetry....not so much anymore (sorry Mara) But.....
Today as I was doing my usual household chores and thinking of the latest pics of Nic, a poem came into my mind rather quickly....one that I needed to write.... I guess. I share it now with all of you and with Nic if he were to ever stop by here sometime. I know it sounds silly, but I like to think that warm thoughts and good intentions, even from faceless fans and from afar, can make a difference in his life.
So, having said that....does anyone else have a poem they might like to share with Nic? Something they would like to say to him if they had the chance? Here's mine.....
IF I COULD by B.E.N. I lit a candle for you today
Murmured a prayer and sent it your way
Hoping somehow it would hit its mark
Lifting your spirits up out of the dark
Peace within is what I forever wish for you
Man with the deep and soulful eyes of blue
If I could, my shoulder to you I would lend
Your heart, mind and body I'd lovingly tend
But all I can do is write words such as these
Light you a candle and ask God, Won't you please...
Help him to find whatever it is he is searching for
For you, Dear Nicolas, Deserve happiness and oh, so much more
