You Show Me Safe Poem by Susan Lacovara

You Show Me Safe



Where the black of night takes prisoners
You show me safe
As stars collide with my wishes
The howling wind becomes a whisper
And your mountains let me sleep

Where the soft snow falls through treetops
Unexpected and unannounced
You show me safe
Warmed are my hands that reach for yours
As we climb the steepest hills

And the sunset splatters her unnamed colors
On a horizon so far from anywhere
You show me safe
Brushing back the hair from my searching eyes
With a tenderness true and simply served

By the bending branches and the creeping vines
Where time is lost and love is found
You show me safe
Allowing both our breath and beating hearts
To rest awhile, in joy, safe joy

Aloha Susan... So similar, yet so emotionally advanced from the write that is your first post... I have just visited these posts... and did an inquiry of a few of them... This is closeness defined... something the majority of humans will never experience except through the word works of those that have, and who have made an effort to expose this to the each of them... I am thankful that I was on the prowl for perfection this night... you are ever so close here... All of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michaelw1two.
