Graced by Your Touch





There is an ethereal glow
around your Presence,
a holiness so profound ~

you seem to see
the infinite depths of my Heart
& lift me above
the foolish limits I impose.

When I fall into shadows,
you stretch out your hands
filled with Light
& whisper to me to hold on.

I cannot turn away
from the embrace of Beauty,
nor can I ignore
its impact upon my Life.

You've entered my Soul
with gentleness
& leave me breathless
as you go.

Time is sacred
within your wings.

    Outstanding stanzas just flow...light as your pen that forms the words. Is it true love that has finally captured your heart? ~if so could not happen to a nicer lady, especially all that you have gone through. Wishing you the best~Sie

    Yes I agree with the one above. For I have said before that it is wonderful to fall into your words....No difference this time. It is very beautiful. You and Rich have such a similar style. I love both of your work so much....God bless Wanda, Trina.

    You always write straight from the heart and even though you whisper in this poem, your voice is loud and clear...you know yourself so well, Vlindertjie. A beautiful poem that says so much about the poet and the dear one with the sacred wings and hands...

    I can truely relate to this poem...
    I have been blessed with great friends this last period of time, one of them is a common friend of ours...Rich.

    To be touched and forever changed by the presence of someone in your life makes it just worth living...

    Your writes always shine with so much hope and beauty..
    Keep up the great work.
    ~Hana~
