Rolling River God

Rolling River God (click on the Title above to link to Nicole's Web site)

Rolling River GodLittle Stones are smooth
Only once the water passes through
So I am a stonerough and grainy still
Trying to reconcile this river's chill

But when I close my eyes
and feel you rushing by
I know that time brings change
and change takes time
And when the sunset comes
my prayer would be just this one
that you might pick me up and notice that I am
just a little smoother in your hand

Sometimes raging wild
sometimes swollen high
never have I known this river dry
The deepest part of you
is where I want to stay
and feel the sharpest edges wash away

But when I close my eyes
and feel you rushing byI know that time brings change
and change takes time
And when the sunset comes
my prayer would be just this one
that you might pick me up and notice that I am
just a little smoother in your hand

...Wait For This...

...find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot
.....
...who calls you back when you hang up on him
.....
...who will stay awake just to watch you sleep
.....
...wait for the guy who kisses your forehead
.....
...who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats
.....
...who holds you constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you
....
...wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's her."

Quoteable Quotes

I found this on Reuben Morgans Website and it really got me thinking:

"I like to read what people write in their thankyous on albums and in books - I find it interesting and fascinating ....just like I find good quotes. I like to read what people are remembered for or immortalised for...what legacy they leave and what lingers. Sometimes they make me think about how to write better - word imagery is a powerful tool and words are able to bring such a sense of creativity and are able to paint incredibly expressive pictures....this month allow yourselve space to write...to quote... to dream and to create...."

Women of Destiny

“Women are fantastic. They are beautiful, diverse, interesting and intriguing. Unshackled, they captivate hearts and light up a room. They are warm, embracive, maternal and delightful. They delight in friendship and crave companionship - the desire for loyalty runs within their veins. They're dynamic and creative and without doubt are fashioned for greatness!"
