And Sometimes It Feels Like This...


"I want to tell you a gentlest thing

like light to you,

like old faces being fed a good memory

from inside themselves,

like eyes that do not watch

but slowly meet across a room

in which everyone is

and no one need hurry

to what he is sure of.

I want to say

before we run out of rooms and everyone

that

I am slowest, surest,

gentlest too

across whatever room

I look at you."

For once I am glad that I got behind on my blog reading! What an amazing treat to follow your love entries in one sitting just now! Love this last one especially, and the story of you and your husband. Thanks so much for sharing. I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day, Barb!
