Once upon a laugh, I understood how easily a few well placed words can spring joy.
Once upon a tear, I saw how a word not chosen well can draw hurt on a heart forever.
Once upon a smile, I knew how important it was to peddle encouragement.
Once upon a frown, I grieved the loss of kindness and gentleness in the world.
Once upon a touch, I felt the power of love wrapped around me on a dark night.
Once upon a slap, I experienced the sting of rebellion and anger.
Once upon a kiss, I discovered how sweet or sour love can be in the hands of a human.
Once upon a lie, I lost my innocence and found bitterness in its place.
Once upon a nail pierced hand, I found my sin and need for His love.
Once upon a cross, I witnessed a man give everything simply because He loves.

Beautifully written! Yours, Susannah?
Thank you! Yes, wrote it in my head last night when I couldn’t sleep, then typed it up this morning.
