Fair to middlin' of nowhere

You reach for my hand
and wrap it in your warm
rough against my soft
strong around my gentle
You tell me you love me
with this simple grasp
You hug my heart to yours
and hold it tight
Everything you need
to say...
is in the palm of your hand.

Wonderful poetic admission of the love between two lovers. Nice writing, Lori.

If you were reaching
for a perfect measure
of love
you overfilled
your cup in this one.
