Life, lingering upon the budded branch, swaying softly in a dew covered Breeze….hanging by a single solitary thread as a hesitant breath Brings home the whispered words of “I Care”. And, it is known, felt, sensed, tasted upon the tip of a rose colored Tongue…that indeed one does care…and the silence of a whisper, Falling quietly, falling slowly into the shimmering seas.. Does Awaken the heart as one grieves and prays, wishes that one day a Tender soul will again be met … that a hand might reach out and Grasp another who will ever, forever be loved… Dedicated...with humility and single wish of hopefulness... |

Barry, I really like this, and especially, how you chose to place the emphasis on your words and pauses by ending each line as you did. Beautiful writing filled with budding hope. miscellanea |

Even in silence, that heart to heart encourages as much as it embraces the sound of "I care". Brought a smile...so many |
