All your perfect places … (06/27/11)

“All Your Perfect Places” I wake and turn to you – to lightly touch your cheek, … to softly stroke your hair, … to wrap you up and let my hands come to rest … in all your perfect places. And yet you are not here. My thoughts then reach for you; seeking any solace. […]

Little Gethsemane … (06/22/11)
