I breathe better
when you're breathing
beside me.

About Me
- Kristin Riggs
- I have had a passion for the written word, especially poetry, from an early age. I am first and foremost a child of God-a thankful recipient of His grace. I am also a mother, a teacher, a singer,and an overall music lover. I call the beautiful southern United States home, and growing up and raising my family here has shaped who I am in many ways. I believe that life- with its various emotions, experiences, trials, and joys-is a gift from my Heavenly Father. As a poet, I hope that my work expresses this. "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him." -Psalm 62:1 Some of my poetry has been published in the online journals Simply Haiku and Notes from the Gean.

ReplyDeleteI breathe better
when you're breathing

ReplyDeletePaul...beautiful. Nothing I love more that when my fellow poets respond in verse. :) Makes my heart smile.
Love it Kristin... love is in the air :)
ReplyDeleteHello Kristin
ReplyDeleteLove this (it's lovely!) and I can so relate.
My hubby always tells me "come to bed, I sleep better when you are next to me."
(He is so sweet!)
I tend to stay up too late reading but lately I follow his call and he does sleep better.
Enjoy your time with your husband, Kristin.
Happy weekend to both of you!
Margie:)
