"Next Hug" / by Marsha L. VonderBrink
By marsha •
A simple smile,
tilted at the corners,
twinkles
that drip onto a
laugh.
What a sparkle
shooting from
the center,
tighten the
heart,
rush of
love.
A precious
moment
stolen
from
time,
golden seconds,
clutching
our
throats.
Dipping our chest,
bending
waist high,
catching
our
breathe for
the
next
hug!
