You had no knowledge
of the effect your strong arms
would have on my heart.
I have never met
a man who made me so weak
with just his embrace.
I would say in jest,
"You'd better have some strong arms
to hold me up, love."
Ohhhh, how ill-prepared
was I, as my knees failed me...
fantasy come true.
Your arms...God, your arms
carried me through the sunset
with strength through the dawn.

Rita - Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm sadly back in CA now but I had the most spectacular time there!! I'd go back tomorrow if I could. And now I know what you look like, so I'll say hello when I see you. :-)
Chuck - I know the feeling.
Torman - I LOVE that. And if he weren't in a meeting right now, he would be here saying, "That's exactly what I told her." I've never felt so safe in my heart or my body; he's clearly doing a magnificent job thus far.
