For quite some time I have followed a gift writer, Sarah Doughty at her wonderful blog called Heartstring Eulogies. She has written many tiny pieces bursting with meaning. Whenever you have a chance drop by and read her work.

Sarah encouraged me to try to write a few myself. Here is my first, thanks to Sarah.
Caress
Her fingers
touched his skin
Her words
caressed his soul

I love Sarah! ♥ Her blog is awesome… I look forward to her posts every day. I think you’ve done a great job delivering your message with few words. There’s quite a lot of emotion — it’s lovely.
Also… your wife is beautiful… and I am in love with her skirt. I want it!
