Meld ~




it is your spirit
your breath
your body
and moods
that have my attention

your rhythms
and stance
your colors
that enhance
my life

it is the vigor born with exchange of our breath
that draws me near

your vast wild ways
and
 intricate beauty 
inspire me 
to hold your hand
letting the edges of my being 
meld with yours

  62. That second photo captured me, pulled me in, and awed me. I tried to imagine how you captured it. Perhaps you were lying on the side of the water, hanging over the edge. Wow.

    Your words touched me too.

  69. Hi Tammie,
    These photos are gems. The stones are very rich in colour. I was just wondering if they are semi-precious stones, like agates.
    The icicles are so pretty. This is a lovely post as always.
    I hope you are well and you have a magical snowy Christmas!
