‘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

      I know. I’m a really romantic person – ask any of my ex-wives!

    Dear Keith,

    Such a lovely sentiment. What better keepsake than a piece of another person’s heart.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    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!
