It is when you are not near
that I hear you the loudest.
Oh, how your voice thunders
racing through my heart

reminding me
of sweet memories
until a smile is worn
upon my lips

recalling tender moments,
a glance; a kiss.
No matter the distance,
the time, or the place

  you are my mercy

      my saving grace.

"In yearning for nothing, you will be free to enjoy what you do, free to see the patterns, free to hear the music in all things."

As always, Gentle-Spirited One, I can identify with your eloquent and emotive words. This one has given me pause for reflection, as well.

Loving hug,
Linda
