[h=2]France Joli – Come To Me Lyrics[/h]

Come to me
When you're all alone and feelin' down
Come to me
When there's nobody else around
Come to me
I'm still waiting open-armed for you
Come to me
'Cause I will comfort you
When you've no one to turn to
I will be here just for you

Come to me
When your world is empty and cold
Come to me
When you need someone you want to hold
Come to me
In my arms I will keep you safe and warm
Come to me
I will shelter you from the storm
I'm not one to pretend
Why can't you understand
That I love you
And I love you
And I need you
And I want you
And I love you
And I love you
And I need you
And I want you

[oldhermit]

Hmmm!

Now I believe you are more hermit than me.

My idea of hell would be having to spend eternity trapped in Chucky Cheese Pizza's at a six-year-old's birthday party. And I am the only adult there. HORROR!!!

I am decidedly the first definition.

Ahg!

When I was younger and wanted to be a teacher, I had the experience to work (shortly) in a kindergarden... I wnated to teach them (English) and they always wnated to play: So I learned to teach them WHILE PLAYING.

Now, in my adulthood, I started to love kids, particularly when I see how they really are (and I disliked that idea of having them next or too close to me)

Hi im not sure if it is CC or my broadband but things keep freezing up and I keep
getting fatal error messages - very painful.

So I suppose i should call it a night, it is 10.30pm here.

Love you and leave you all (as we say on Yorkshire).

Night night (hoping this will post).

Holy Kindergarten, Batman!! That to me would be close to heaven! I am just overjoyed when I hear little children laughing and they come running to be hugged and held. You must not be a Grandpop. Otherwise, your grandchildren would have broken you of that syndrome by now. ROFL!!!

I used to like kids...and then I had four of them. LOL

Ha! Ha!

I´m sure he was about to say: "I´m the definition number two".

May I ask how many children do you have, sir?

PS

Oh! Answered in advance.

I have nine grandchildren and I love them and miss them but only because they are mine.

 

[VioletReigns]

Ya know what's really strange? Since I've become a grandmother, everywhere I go little children, even babies, smile at me. Their eyes will meet mine, they study my face for a few seconds and then then either come rushing at me for a hug or they will just giggle and coo at me. I love it!!!

Gotcha! That's awesome.

There are exception but, many of them, have such voices, such manner, such loving ways that thay have softened me, a little.

Deja vú, abuelita! ("...smile at me...")

I also had to check my face if I´ve been smiling, even in front of adult ppl (each time a stranger greeted me, unadvertedly).

Where have I known this who actually said "hello!" to me?

I also experienced that... I was bored thinking it was my slow internet connection.

I have re-entered a dozen times today.

Oh! I could not stop myself from this:

 

[VioletReigns]

I was just browsing through the forums reading threads and wondering to myself....

Is it my imagination or are there a heck of a lot of "new" members coming in on a regular basis with well-written short stories that seem only to promote comments?

The reason I think this is because a lot of them don't come back. It's like a hit & run type deal that is posted only to generate activity on the site.

Am I alone in thinking this?
