I have your hands.. the ones that comforted me, cooked for me, cared for me.
I have your feet… the ones that stood all day in the classroom, walked the dogs, and ran with your grandchildren
I have your thighs… the powerful ones you hated, the ones that biked hills and climbed mountains.
I have your smile… the one that was big, constant, and bestowed upon everyone.
I have your voice… the one that was too loud, that sang to me and said I love you.
I have your temperament… the one that was quick to yell, laugh, and cry.
You have my heart… the one that beats for you, aches for you, and will never feel the same.
A special thank you to Amy Leydon for sharing this verse – reflections recorded during a time of personal loss. On Saturday, March 25th Amy will present ”Tear Down the Wall”. Part yoga class, part rock show, part emotional catharsis…”Tear Down the Wall” redefines the idea of fitness. Set to the legendary album, Pink Floyd The Wall, you will move through the physical, energetic and emotional bodies. Through yoga postures, kriyas, strength, and vulnerability, we will tear down our wall brick by brick. For tickets and more information visit movewith.com.
