Love Held Me

There was a time love held me close And whispered in my ears, Love strong enough to keep me warm Through winter of my years. A love so dear it paid the price For sorrows yet to be. So precious that I've locked it tight Deep in my memory. For Catie's Love Notes contest 10th place

This sure is a touching write on love-- the saying "better to have love and lost than to never have loved at all" somehow comes to mind-- thank goodness for the memories... wishing you the best in the contest-- nikko :)
