Laying Down Arms

A friend sent me a link to a poetry reading about marriage. 

Here are a few lines that moved me.


It was you who rolled the stone from my tomb, 

You who brought the desert into bloom...

And when they dust my heart it is your fingerprints they will find...

I know you like the river knows the sea and after all these years your skin still tastes like home.

I will lay down my arms and pray that you will lay down your arms that we may lay down in each other's arms once again.



Love, Lori
