Traces On an early morn time of birth, time of born the mother gave, the father lifted and in child's smile, they were gifted traces on the heart Baby's hand, fingers curled mom's face greets, dad's heart unfurled all in the sweet smile of baby girl now, to go give life a whirl traces on the heart Time is shadow, grace is light sunbeams cast the shadows aside babe to child to young woman sweet mom is proud, dad's full complete traces on the heart History touches, makes replete round and round the circle meets young woman to woman grown held then some babes of her own traces on the heart One love, didn't last second love, gone and past not to surrender to love again? when so much love lies there within? traces on the heart Face coming age, grace the stage lift all gentle spirits, quell within the rage close a door one day, then follow the light that one true love comes, deep within the night traces on the heart In early mist, time now worn comes soft death, time of mourn she gave her best, all were lifted and in her smile, they were gifted traces on the heart 02.03.01 reposted, italics added and in memory |

Taken! Oh but could I see inside some hearts, I know that I would see these words you have spoken. The older I grow, the less important the comma becomes. Let the reader |

To trace a life, one only needs the right kind of parchment, and hope that the tears aren't large. Thank you. What light through yon window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. |
