I slip into your shoes
sometimes,
on a Sunday morning
before the trumpets
of daylight call
out the dreamers

the shawl of magenta
upon your tender frame
shrouding the virginal

in shades of deep copper
when seasons change faces
beneath skies of cerulean
boasting new foliage

season of seasons

I slip into your shoes

kneeling faithfully
between Heaven and Earth

I slip into your shoes
sometimes, but mostly
on a Sunday, hearing
your psalms of morning
before the world  
has yet to rise.

Can there be more beauty than this?  And I ask this in total sincerity and awe.

This is very personal and magic.

How absolutely beautiful and exquisite, dear EmmaRose. A deep closeness I can relate to!

This is a quiet ache,  full of a very tender kind of love and longing.

Beautifully done~
