Man's hands, strong hands. A blue orchid pinched between the fingers, and a ring on the ring finger. It's not just any hand, but that of the man who's been with me in my life. The orchid represents the moment I thought, "It's done." That point of no return when you realize your heart no longer belongs to you. That turning point that turns a summer love into something you hope will last forever. A gift accompanied by a card and tears of emotion because, for the first time, you realize that someone is trying to make you happy. And the ring, not a sign of engagement, but a gift before a separation that has brought us even closer. A hand that caresses me, touches me, holds me.
