In Good Hands |

In Good Hands I have placed my heart in good hands. His softness of hold, soothes the ache of the past, warms the chill it once felt and charges my happiness, once more. As the dark settles in, he lights up my life with his smiles and eyes me as a solid find, a treasure, each day discovering another gem in me. One by one I am lifted, the failing steps behind me now, learning as we go, laughing as we make new footprints together. He tempers my soul with composure. My heart has strengthened in resolve. Its tempo an even blend, kneaded by his looks, from blue eyes that risk focusing on mine. Invigorated by each touch, I am in good hands... M "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." (Will Moss) [This message has been edited by nakdthoughts (05-19-2003 01:28 PM).] |

Maureen, I think this is my favorite of all your poems. I know I've probably said that before and will most likely say it again. LOL But the message in this is beautiful. Besides I know exactly how this feels, too.

To the point of trust...how wonderful. And he sees you and the gems you offer. I should say you are in good hands. This is beautiful. -Patricia |

“As the dark settles in, he lights up my life with his smiles and eyes me as a solid find, a treasure, each day discovering another gem in me. One by one I am lifted, the failing steps behind me now, learning as we go, laughing as we make new footprints together” Nakedthoughts, this is really good, especially this second verse... I hope your happiness continues! The best of wishes to you, Richy [This message has been edited by Richy (05-20-2003 09:14 AM).] |
