the token ten--a poem from the heart

a poem i wrote to the sorority that we presented at our last sunday night meeting.

a poem from the heart

a circle we have found
a place we can call our own

a term that means
endearment
commitment
ever true

by a laugh
or a cry
I will know your voice

by a hug
or a touch
I will know what your feeling

by a look
or a smile
I will know what to say

take my hand
and I’ll take yours

your fingers
my hope

your palm
my cornerstone

your hand is warm
slightly shaking
as I realize mine is too

I can’t say I could have done it
without you.



to my girls who held my hand through it all.
