The soft whispers of his words

reached gently into her body.

She felt the tender grasp of his heart

take hold of her spirit and without effort,

drew her closer and closer to him.

She was looking away

when his words and his reach extended

to hold her.

She was standing alone

when his mind and soul joined her

and lovingly shared her space.

She was walking in different shades of gray

when his life reflected glorious colors

onto her path.

She was looking down

to find her direction,

when his light illuminated brightly in the distance

for her to see.

She was hearing the rustling of leaves

and the whipping winds of winter

when he pulled the sun from the sky

and slowly warmed her soul.

She extended her heart to God

and prayed that He would offer her

the colors, the light, and the sun

to give back to the man who holds her heart…

So beautifully.
