Nothing



I am the whisper on 
your lips.
I am the silence
accepting communion.
I am a weed in 
the rose garden.
I am a husk in
the green field.
I am driftwood
washed to shore.
I am a grain
of sand.
I am a whitecap 
in the breaking waves 
of the ocean. 
I am the morning dew
on the maple leaf.
I am nothing
 without you.

  7. AYALA! The Universe is all the more beautiful with you in it! (I like the allusions--curl of a whitecap, grain of sand, drop of dew, husky husk, etc..And....NOTHING, without the "other"...
