WELCOME
29 April 2013

There are corners of my mind
where you creep in
unannounced
and caress my thoughts
and star my eyes
and paint my lips a wistful smile
and strum my heart strings
into timeless tunes
and tickle my lungs
into sparkling laughter
and bubbling joy
and loosen my shoulders
into light
and whisper words
I long to hear
and I revere
those sacred corners of my mind.

It's very special when someone just seems to be able to softly seep into the sacred spots of ours.
