Raison D'Etre --- Reason To Be

Just 

laying

in his arms

always heals me

when I realize his touch gives me rest.

His touch is so refreshing that I am

resorted to

a wilting 

happy

mess!

Brandee - congratulations on your win - this is an awesome poem. I greatly appreciate all of your kind words - I've had MS for 11 years now and I laugh alot or else I'd cry. Good days and bad days - but there are lots of people out there that have it so much worse! Again...Congratulations and Thank you! Luv, Kelly
