… for Sammi’s Weekend Writing Prompt where the given word is Keepsake and the limit, 49 words.

‘Open your hand’ she whispered
I did as she asked
‘Have this’
.
She placed her palm upon mine
‘You’ve given me nothing’ I said
‘Oh, but I have’
.
Then she was gone
I know not where
Nor why.
.
I treasure that keepsake
A piece of her heart
within mine

Oh, that’s beautiful!
Poignant.
Thanks Sadje.
You’re welcome 😉
Oh you soppy old git!

First off I love these new words…some I can actually remember! And then the story was fun and your “Piece of Heart” was poignant and sweet…loved it!
Cheers and do take care!
I do have a serious side! Thanks for your good wishes Kathe.
