It touched me With its words, Penetrating the deepest confines of my soul, And ignited a fire within me - One that burned ever so slightly out of control. Its warmth blanketed my body, Enveloped me within its strong and massive arms. I held on to it tightly though it manifested no form, And I stayed there but for a time... And time stood still. It touched me with its words, and it... was you. © Brandyn Sand revised 11-99 |

Brandyn, This "touched me" too. I guess I react strongest to words that I can easily relate to, and that's what these words have done to me. Very powerful.

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
