if i speak my words
will you listen?
if i extend them to you
will you gingerly tuck them into your heart
for safe keeping?
because one day
i may need you to pull them out
and speak them back to me
and i will listen
and i will tuck them tenderly then
and we will know
that each has been heard
sending a little love your way, m

So very sweet.
your words are so nice. I like what you share today. I should check out the site you suggest. I may just visit today.
that was nice, I read your story about you and your dad. I like how you say in your 10 year old mind. I do that a lot. say things like that.
Thoughtful, beautiful words as always. And the photo too – lovely. Thank you for the recent links you have provided – wonderful sites I may not have encountered without your guidance.
