A hand softly closed my eyes
A sigh shed a tear
A wave crashed
Lightning flashed
A siren roared
The thought was floored
Seconds ticked
Voices cracked
Eyes pushed open
Satin washed them
And the sounds danced
As color pranced
No more wind
Hands held me
Then I rode the wind

I liked this and then at the end I didn't understand it. Did you go free or not?

(sigh) I guess you can never truly tell until you go out for a ride of your own! (big hugggssssssss) Sometimes the hands feel just like a seat belt, otherwise they could strangle, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
