We lay on the grass counting stars, each flicker a tick on the measure of time. In the space between breaths I took your hand. You lifted your face toward mine. The heavens calculated the insignificance and the significance of this moment.

there is a no calculating the moment, when the axis shifts and your hand rests in one that is made to enfold it. I loved it, of course I did, because it’s full of so much love and magic.

You have a true gift….you are able to evoke such emotion through your words….the type of emotion that a reader feels when the words have been so exquisite that they are almost tangible….like the senses get involved in the reading because of how you have utilized words. Powerful talent!!
