Lanterns, This is love – The Palace, what is love ?

Sky Lanterns

On my wedding day, my best woman, Julia, organised a surprise. After the speeches she asked everyone to step outside of the Lifeboat Inn in Thornham, Norfolk, where we were holding the reception. There, waiting for us, were two-dozen sky lanterns. The guests stood in a circle and together we all lit the flame underneath. With my new husband, Aden, we grasped the top of a lantern until the heat expanded the paper and it became too difficult to hold. With whoops and screams, and exclamations of ‘love, long life and happiness to the bride and groom’, everyone held on until the force inside became too strong to hold down. Then one by one, or in pairs, the lanterns were released. They floated upwards like graceful doves in flight. Each lantern represented a symbol of our love, and as they rose higher and higher, drifting in the night sky, my own heart felt like it was opening and soaring.

Tom Waits Song – Beautiful – what is love

Posted on by

the first thing that came to mind was a song that tugs a my heart strings – in a good way.
it was an in love song….

matt loves Tom Waits & I had never listened to him much before we met.
wierd clip – i think it should be a fawn in a forest or something looking all innocent & beautiful & canoodling with another of its kind….
but this piece of music – to me – tugs at my heart strings & makes me think about the way I love matt…
you know, the good way that your heart aches when you love someone…. if that makes sense…

Swedish Poem for The Palace – what love really means

Posted on by

I have a Swedish poem that I would like to add to your collection.
It was written by my very first love and I memorised it word by word, still remembering every one of them.
Av lyckans tårar
jag binder dig en krans
En efter en
de glänser kring din hals

You – A Poem of Love. – (the meaning of love)

Posted on by

You

You are the ocean.
As far as the eye can see.
Sometimes diamonds,
Sometimes Jovially lapping puppy-like
Sometimes a rage.

You, are ocean.
As far as my eye can see.
Keep me afloat, balanced.
Take me places I want to go
And place I won’t.

You, the ocean.
As far as I can swim.
Your everywhere In everything,
Every nook every cranny
You affect all who come in

You, an ocean.
As far as I can hope.
Boats lie drunk without you
Fish miss you.
And stones don’t have much to do.

You are, the ocean.
As far as I can pray
You receive what’s given
You’ll last forever.
Me, I’m just a transient

You are, the ocean.
As far as my brush can paint.

You are my first thought, my last thought.
I swim in you
I smell you
I drink you
I lie with you

You are, my ocean.
And that’s all I can know.
