Heartstrings Played




The songs of the ages,

played that the heart may abide in the passions of their melodies.

They are the sounds of the waves caressing the shores.

The breathing of a child asleep safe and content in your arms.

The breeze as it lovingly tantalizes your skin,

The radiance of the sun

as it warms your being from the outside in

The feeling of knowing you are a creation

and there is none other as you are

For this give thanks
