Where There Is No Need For Words You held me last night, naked against you, as your kisses stole the words and sighs from my silky lips. We communed through skin, as each breath; every heartbeat shouted where dialogue became unnecessary. Your touch became the vessel for your thoughts and we needed no conversation to speak in volumes of our feelings. Rocked to sleep like a child in your arms, I drifted off; contented in love’s lullaby. ~For Rodger...who leaves me speachless (not an easy task I might add ) To love means never to be afraid of the windstorms of life: should you shield the canyons from the windstorms you would never see the true beauty of their carvings. ~Elizabeth Kubler-Ross |

Sometimes words just do not convey the true experience of what we feel. Silence can be it's own language and touch the universal. ~~Nice writing Hoot~~ A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |

Ahh. Exquisite. Lori ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean. Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens. Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance. And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance - I hope you dance. song by LeeAnn Womack ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
