STILL MAGIC
By Charles Robert Lindholm 2-15-2017 – 3:20 a.m.
She Slips Her Hand
So Softly Into Mine
A Silent Invitation
As Fingers Intertwine
A Bond
Unbroken
With No Words
Spoken
It’s Still
Magic
Every
Time

“When I met my wife, it was so clear. I just knew. I knew it the very first time I touched her. It was like coming home, only to no home I’d ever known. I was just taking her hand to help her out of a cab. And it was like… magic.” – Sam
Sleepless In Seattle – Sam
Better than I was,
More than I am
And all of this happened
by taking your hand
And who I am now
is who I wanted to be
And now that we’re together,
I’m stronger than ever
I’m happy and free
Tim McGraw
Nothing in this world compares
to the comfort and security
of having someone just
hold your hand.

The moment when her fingers
intertwine with yours …
it’s like heaven

I give them generously where they are deserved and your poem touched me this morning- the small gestures in life are really the most beautiful!

Yes, you are so right! Little things can make you feel so “beloved” more than grand gestures and words come up short in those instances. So glad the poem touched you! That was my purpose so as a poet that makes me oh, so happy!
Hope you have a blessed day!!

So appreciative of your time and kind words! That is so true. I loved that quote from “Sleepless in Seattle”. It also sums up exactly what you are talking about. I always love to see an older couple holding hands. So romantic! Thanks for following.
