How I know by Shannon McEwenIt isn’t the big events
Grand gestures
Declarations
Or public displays
But the way
You pull me close
Run your long fingers
Softly
Rhythmically
Along my scalp
Just because I like it

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 09/16/13 at 12:33 PM I am in total agreement and empathy with this lovely ode. life is hardly about the grand gestures but little tokens of humility, of human hand clasping human hand in ways which widen the heart significantly to feel. so loved. |
