Breath Unplugged

When a spirit is set free
across the chasm there is a breeze
that nibbles ripples into the lake
even when breath is unplugged

it holds a minute
to navigate the loss
and plant a pulse
so quick that robins in cocking head
turn in sweet bewilderment

Listen to the dreams that come
when you are open to dimension
and time spreads itself

and you will know that love
has no boundaries
and that it understands forgiving
before your tear has
left its small circumference on the pillow

*thank you* ... *heart hugs*

Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme ...
they are not measured by the commitment of time.
Some emotions run too deep to be defined by words,
forgiveness and understanding remain ...
the most beautiful words ever heard.

Beautiful lines.... beautifully surreal.
Love it

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh my gosh, this is sooooo touching, sweet friend, I too need Kleenex right now, love can always be unconditional and always has the ability to forgive! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much sweet friend, this is wonderful! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
