Your Voice


If I asked very nicely
promised to sit and listen quietly
would you talk to me?
You could tell me stories about your life
or put to word thoughts that float through your mind
maybe just read to me.
Goodnight kiss, my lullaby
halcyon dreams where sleep abides
your words were to me.
It seems to be your voice I miss tonight.

OH...I love this. I was just thinking today, how at first I was happy just to get a note from him, then I was delighted to hear his voice--and now that I have looked into his eyes? Nothing else will do...   well, maybe SOMETHING else would do.    Thank you for this. Was like a testimony...grins...

I enjoyed this much.

Do not fear going forward slowly,
Fear only standing still.

You remind me of a dear friend, now gone, whose voice I listened to very intently, knowing it would be stilled too soon . . . I miss it.

I understand this well, that sweet voice that we all need to be there with us. Great expression of love.
