To You

I said I loved you
    nothing has changed that
    did you think it was
    just circles in the wind
    a movement that blows
    too softly close to touch
    in the stirring of a brush
    there, and then just gone
    more than just the whispers
    that trembles the trees
    yet, words are all I own
    and I give them all
    to you

just some words cut out
from the diary of my heart

...words are all I own
    and I give them all
    to you"

Words, thoughts, ideas, visions, that connect one soul for a moment to another become the greatest gift one may give to another; all else pales before the union of awareness.

This is so true .......
Especially in long-distance relationships when
physical touch isn't possible so many times.

Good writing as always, Helen.
Hugs,
Ethel

This reminds me of the old Glen Campbell song:

"Its only words,
And words are all I have
To steal your heart away."

Don't know who wrote the song, but I want you to know that you carved a new facet on a similar sentiment.  You said it very well.  This is a gem!

Gosh, I could have written this and you know what?  Some people really do think they are only words.  Those are the ones who just werent open to your love at that time in your life.

ms slick
each of us are given a few words
to make the world more lovely
they can only be used a few times
from the heart

before they become nails
yours are precious

enjoyed
