I try

stumble

rise
to
seek
words

a word
for you

stumbling
but I

must give
you
words

stumbling
words

a word

somehow
it is
there

your
answer
only

a sigh

Sometimes a sigh is all a man deserves.

Sometimes it's all he needs.

The tone of the sigh, a smile, a moment will bring forth many words.
Good one.

~ May I use your own words (from one of the replies that you wrote) as my response to your poem of mots?

Love & Light,

There are times Jamie..when a sigh can mean oh so much more...
than just a sigh.
Wonderful write.

The very difficulty in finding the words indicates how important finding them is... but sometimes, all that's necessary is caring enough to try. *S*

This does have an element of sadness... but it also reminds me of steadfastness... being there for someone... offering all you can when you don't really know what they need... and that's a thing of beauty. *S*

This sigh is one of admiration. *S*

I'm with Paula Finn... depends on the sigh.

Great work as always James.
