as the wind paused for a moment
clouds halted their voyage across the sky
the birds stopped singing
and the leaves in the trees stopped playing
I swear the Earth stopped moving,
if for but a brief moment,
for all to listen for the word my body ached to hear
you whispering my name

It is possible to make time stand still even for a moment. Timelessness is a beautiful state to be in. You can then hear every whisper and see all the miracles. Bless you Wendi

More so now, but before I would set a day at the weekend to not use a clock. I found there was more time, life was quieter, life flowed from one thing to another it just was continuous. I could achieve more without a clock. Time just stood still all day.

And doesn’t that make the heart sing Wendi. To be ‘touched’ and know the magic of that love is like no other feeling on this Earth. Something that will always be remembered, like a beacon for where we want to be.
May that light ever be in your heart, in your words and most certainly in the knowing within your smile π
