Six Word Fridays: Peace

Peace is...

Laying right there in your arms;

Holding your hand feeling your strength;

Waiting with anticipation as you come;

Watching you watching me we smile;

Seeing your face light up brightly;

Hearing your voice seeing your vision;

Making footprints in sands of life; 

Taking the road far less traveled;

Me leads to you... leads to us.

Peace is to be with you...
