We had our secret signs,
Just you and I;
Not shared with friends
Nor seen by passerby.
Our own children
Knowing us so well,
Even they were unaware.
We'd sworn not to tell.
We'd send our love
With just our fingertips;
While other words
Were coming from our lips.
Alone I sit
And search the heavens high;
For secret signals
Coming from the sky.

By Joyce 3/21/2001

Thank you Sunshine. I'm embarrased by the typo in the title. Joyce

Joyce,

"....our own children.....even they were unaware...." There are times when the dearest caring is cryptic. Very nice.
