Nest Of Love I come to you Like a injured bird On flightless wings. Drawn to the safety Of your healing arms And soothing voice. Broken and scarred, I find my solace there, There in your arms. And you hold me, Scared and trembling, Close to you. Softly you whisper Words of encouragement, Words of love. In a heartbeat, I lose myself in you, And the healing begins. You shelter me, But do not cage me. Let me try my wings. Knowing all along, That I may spread those wings And fly away. In turn hoping, That the love you have showed Will bring me back to your nest. ------------------ Alis volat propriis (She flies with her own wings) |

Hoot, this is lovely. It really flows, and I like that too! ------------------ Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me how could I ask for more? |

Tenderly said ... spread your wings, no longer clipped ... fly little bird ... fly! Return when you have completed the flight. You did a BEAUTIFUL job on it, Ruth. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
