    Touch

    Reach out, Take hold, Touch,
    Feel without falling,
    Fall within feelings,
    Hold onto what counts,
    Count your blessings too,
    To touch a life,
    Let yourself be touched,
    Take the time, To caress,
    To hold.....To care............TO TOUCH

    This is simple and profound. It spans a lifetime and grasps for a moment. I wrote about the fleeting attempt to hold on to life in Across the Channel. (perhaps it is relevant to the concept here)

    our "senses" are the tools to living...truly living, if we pay attention to them. You may like my poem " A Place in Time"

    ..."Feel without falling, fall within feelings..." both objective (one must be very objective to feel without falling and at the same time hugely emotional - to allow ones self to fall into the depths of what they feel. Interesting the scope of perspective in those two lines. Well done. MSV

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
