THE DREAM KEEPER
Bring me all of your dreams...
You dreamer,
Bring me all of your
Heart Melodies...
That I may wrap them
In a blue-cloud cloth

Of the world.

Hi stopping by to say Hi and invite you to a listen of my new minute long version of White Christmas.Thank you for your support and the Best To you always. tim
As we stand with the most precious part of our lives... I cannot recall the moment in time it began, For at that moment I knew happiness, a happiness I had never known before, for just the thought gave me joy beyond belief...
It is a love of passion and desire as love which does not end, love does not wither and love is not, in fact a contract and can only be considered as a gift...
I realize I now know the true meaning of love as long as this life endures and beyond, for my dreams, my realities, the feeling of ecstasy it brought to me...
Love it is a never-ending need, one that will last a lifetime... and will never let you forget how true love has made you feel...
May Faith, Hope & Love Always Be Your Treasures.... ~John~
