Hands that touch the same feelings
Feet that walk the same path
Legs that carry the same load
Stomachs that crave the same hunger
Arms that reach out for the same dream
Shoulders that bare the same burden
Noses that smell the same fear
Hair that flows in the same breeze
Eyes that catch the same vision
Hearts that beat to the same rhythm
Souls that soar in the same clouds
Lives that search for the same desires
Love that wants and hurts and needs and feels
and unites in the same lifetime
Soul mates.....hmmm, I wonder.
Excerpt
Dedicated to my family: to my husband,
for all of his love and support, a gift to show how much I love him; to my children, Daniel, Hannah and Collin, something to remember me by;
to my new grandson, something to pass
on to the next generation; to my parents, through these words are the things I learned from them; to my brothers, though we are separated by miles we are always together in spirit.
