I am a Silly Old Bird!

On Friday night I gave him a box of tiny gifts: a little silver acorn to remind him that I treasure everything that he is and that any gift given in love is precious, a house key with leaves and glitter on it so he'll know he always has a place to come home to and that there are always new doors to be unlocked, a pendant with a bit of the map of his town so to remember where he comes from, and a brass compass to lead him on adventures.

As the month rolling on, we'll be looking to buy his first car together...yipes! *grin*

Keep me in your Heart for a While

When I am on my own for a day, I often wander back. I'm likely to reread stories, take walks in places I know, sit in the shadows and sun, feeling the day pass by as a breeze. Memories of folks gone on visit with me. This is where I go during days by myself. Time is unsettled, conversations reviewed, phantom voices and touches can surround me. At the end, I fold them away again, safe in my heart - beloved, until we meet again.
