She Was

She was floating in warm water, watching the heavens.
	She felt her body touched without being touched. 
	She closed her eyes, and submerged.
	She healed her spirit this way.
	She was transformed.
	She knew herself.
	She was whole.
	She was.

I'm not sure if I told your or not, but I just got back from a month long trip in the UK (It was very cold there, which explains the beanie and jacket... lol).

Yes, I knew you were there. I didn't know it was seriously cold though. Apparently you are always smiling. Good for you! Jack

"She felt her body touched without being touched" << Aww man. Another great water-inspired piece! I liked how the context really gave strength to that last line... says a lot in just two words!
