Some say love, it is a river
that drowns the tender reed.
Some say love, it is a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed.
Some say love, it is a hunger,
an endless aching need.
I say love, it is a flower,
and you its only seed.

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dyin'
that never learns to live.

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been to long,
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong,
just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed that with the sun's love
in the spring becomes the rose.

 




One of my all time favorite songs!! It is amazingly powerful   It makes me feel sad, (in the sweetest way) & happy & everything in between.This song can bring me to tears but it can lift me up when i am down as well! It has that very special magic. The words are simple but touching....

This page I would like to dedicate to Maddy, who passed away January 24th 2001.She was only 35 years old.   Maddy died of kidney cancer which took her away from us in less then 3 months. She had been in a wheelchair since she was born but she had an enormous 'joy de vivre'. Maddeke, as we loved to call her,  would lift us up when we were down, she would make us laff when we were sad.  When  she heard from the doctor that she had only 3 months left to live, she told her mum, 'I will do it my way mama, dont cry, smile, always'. And just before she went with angels,  Maddy smiled   at each and everyone of us... she has really done it HER WAY.. I miss you Maddy, 

I love you!!
