Take my hand
Lead me to your heart
Let me rest
Take my heart
Let me lead you there
If you’ll come
Take this life
Simple offering
But profound
If we join
Greater than the parts
Is the sum

Like most people, I have a number of sides to me. The most interesting one probably emerges through my writing, hence this blog. I love to read, and also to write, and so this is a way to share both.

I wonder how you convulsed your beautiful thoughts in those simply written lines! How brisk and terse!…besides, it has the right universal and free appeal. It fits to any relationship between universal man to man or woman or any.
Thank you so much..it started as a kind of writing exercise, to keep it to a simple form, and evolved out of that. I’m so pleased that the economy and discipline I was trying to achieve didn’t lessen the message, so thank you so much for your comments. 🙂
You are most welcome…ya you made it right 🙂

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the support and you thinking of me. Unfortunately my time is rather limited at the moment so I will need to regretfully decline, but I do really appreciate it so much. 🙂
Much said in so few words! Lovely.
Thanks Roxi! 🙂
I don’t know you, but in your writing I feel I knew you before. Let’s make together a better world!!!
Thank you so much – I love your blog and writing too, so who knows, we may well be kindred spirits! 🙂
… Maybe!!! =)
Reblogged this on Admiral of Reveries and commented:
“Take this life/ Simple offering/ But profound” … Awesome!!!
Thanks so much for the re-blog, that is very kind and I am very flattered by your support for this poem. 🙂
Helen,
Beautiful piece. Very organic flow to the verses. Your ending is perfectly punctuated. Well done!
Thanks for coming to my site. I look forward to reading more of your work when It is not so late. See you here again soon.

Thank you! I was very glad to find your site yesterday – both the poetry and now, this morning, also your short story/novella site. I love the genre you write in so will be visiting often I think! 🙂
“Greater than the parts of the sum.” Love it!!! Fabulous job, Helen!! 🙂
Thanks Estella, as ever, your support is so appreciated! 🙂
