Tracing Time

Distance directs its path in my direction- in yours unable to be removed from the remnants left behind we stay on this journey Tracing Time shall your wish be the same as mine? Gone is another year, new moments are upon you and me Still- We are tracing, simply racing against time Distance directs its path in my direction- in yours we move about, in the same location, through connection Yet, are separated only through space ________________________ ~ Even the wind feels its touch ~ Thoughts from the heart Many Blessings to all, as the New Year softly whispers its welcome

This was an ideal poem by which to end one year and start another, Brandy. You make an impact with your words, even though you opt to whisper rather than shout! ~ Enjoy the week ahead. Warm regards & hugs // paul

time drifts on it's way... as it should... awaiting no ones arrival... distances are closed as each footstep is placed... one step at a time... space is merely where we stand... in this moment of distant time....

Connections that bridge time, space and distance are rare and should never be forgotten or taken for granted. Well done ma'am! TAH

I think it would be amazing if we could make time stand still, but then moments wouldn't move and so many memories would never be made. Not all moments are wonderful, but through those times- we learn and we grow. At least we should. You and your thoughts are appreciated. Thank you Vijay for being here, for being You. Happy Holidays to you and may your New Year be amazing. ~ Brandy
