Quilted Clouds

Recline upon your bed of quilted clouds
And listen to the wind play melodies,
Enveloped in our love's protective shroud
That shelters you from aches and miseries.
So sleep and dream uninterrupted dreams
Of one assured of love without demand.
Protected from the shrill incessant screams
Of erstwhile, evil love and its commands.
For here alone is sanctuary found
And here alone is solace guaranteed,
A fortress firm where memories abound
And soothe the soul whenever there is need.

Now press your cheek against my chest my dear,
For harm will never pierce your comfort here.

How lovely...

I would tell you a story, but I'm sure you don't care.  But I just thought that you should know that your poem reminds me of a story, and a very meaningful story to me.   And I thought it a lovely poem.
