Sunday Morning
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We spoke of you and our eyes leaked, we remembered you and we smiled and hugged, our eyes moist and we embraced on a Sunday morning.<\/p>\n

We knew words, but they remained quiet, reflective and huddled against the back-drop of more than thirty years of friendship.<\/p>\n

We whispered pictures of you and familiar with the love-magic that you wove into every word you wrote,<\/p>\n

We recognised the tender silence, the beautiful pause that fell between us on this Sunday morning and we shook hands and knew the world had been changed forever.<\/p>\n
