~In dreams~
His love finds me
Surrounds me in softness
Protecting me from fears that haunt
A gentleness that is stronger than steel
His love is all I need and want
My haven from the world
My one safe place
~In dreams~

OK, I give up.  What is a rictameter?  Does it measure earthquakes?

By the way, I just love your verse.  You are either talking about THE man or Jesus.  Or ... both.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

Such gentle words, one almost misses the strength that protects. Good job.

A rictameter is the instrument that measures my heartbeats when I read your poetry...normally indicating an oncoming tremor of huge proportions

Precious thoughts, gently woven in a brief, yet charming fashion.
