As she left, she presented it to me. Christmas over, it was time to leave.
Outstretched hand, without a word.
A memory on paper. A gift of love. A carefully detailed crayola snapshot from the gallery of her soul.
Labeled, to distinguish identical twin spirits: me...you
Linked. Hand to hand, heart to heart.
Blue skies, sunshine, trees of green. Warmth.
Heart on canvas. Leaving behind a piece of herself...for me.
