Please love me to-day
Our future is uncertain
Wrap me in your arms
Calm my fears with solemn vows
Kiss me into to-morrow

Beautiful Chris!!!
This is now my new favourite of yours!!
~Hugs, Love and Miss ya, Teed~

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

This is a lovely charmer about uncertainties we all face, but that you say better!  Well done!  Ken

Chris, this is spectacular. I loved it, loved it, loved it!

May I share it with my hubby?

Thanks and hugs, Marti

When one opens themselves
so beautifully, so honestly...
the train will travel tracks
it never even knew existed...

Well done, little one.
