This beautiful piece was penned by Eric from My Sword and Shield –
It is no feature of her face, nor motion of her form,
which calls her “beautiful” in my eyes
It is that she walks in my soul and calls it “home
♥
Many have left footprints in my Heart and Soul as our paths crossed and merged for a time, leaving behind an essence of their Being for me to treasure in quiet moments of contemplation.
Yet others – those precious and dear to me – have stayed and call it home.
Who, I wonder, walks in your Soul and calls it home?

is that they always
see beauty in others

I’m left questioning whether my soul has been welcoming enough. A thought-provoking post…
the Jane i know is more than welcoming 🙂 but you’re right of course, we all question ourselves and are harsh critics of ourselves. Perhaps we need to extend that welcome to ourselves as well …
I welcomed those who needed me, but I turned away those I needed… you’re right. I didn’t welcome myself.
That’s often the hardest call for us all x
A beautiful notion of “home”. There is a comfort and a closeness in such a relationship that transcends the idea of “place”. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you, Jim. Eric’s words captured my heart – and yours by the sounds 🙂
very profound, our soul is our home and as you say some leave footprints and some stay longer … Jane is already in mine, her poetry, her kids, her raw openness 🙂
Such beautiful words from him… So poignant. I’m kinda with Jane on this one. I can’t decide if there are many or few… How odd. What a neat post, girl!
Gee – thanks! This seems to have provoked some deep thinking.
Yes… I’m guessing a lot of folks connected with this one.
