To love someone this carefully: I cup your face, fragility in my comma-hand and sing in whispers soft and comforting; oh-my-angel-featherings I pray you feel no pain at all. I want your arms to be my wings. I kiss ten toes as roller skates knowing that your knees have fate to brush and burn the cold concrete-- to love someone this carefully. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjYm5nALqCQ |

I can't pull out one line or two as being most special when the entire poem makes me forget where I am. This is gentle perfection I'll savor again and again... |

Karen, that was beautiful, and Ruth said it right, you take us away on your wings. By the way, that is THE most beautiful YouTube I have heard in some time. Love it! |

Thank you. And just know that there is no drug, no piece of music, no experience I've yet to find that centers me so much as holding an infant. |
