When your hand folded around mine you did smile <br />and I saw the depths of your soul <br />as you caught the profile of my face, <br />and your skin was soft while you were so very near, <br />while the essence of my heart was very happy, <br />and I speak to the Lord of you when later I did kneel down. <br />When your hand folded around mine <br /> <br />all of my own emotions did betray me, <br />as I felt age-old like a fossil, <br />and I wondered if falling in love did inspire you <br />to take my hand in the church, <br />when your hand folded around mine<br /><br />Gert Strydom<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-your-hand-folded-around-mine/
