I Am Safe

I Am Safe 

I am safe in your embrace

That I may venture forth

Knowing that your arms will catch

My fall along this course

A safety net 

You are that yes

And to you I am the same

Sweet friend we offer up to each 

Safe haven in this game

Where do I place this care for you?

Are you friend 

or 

sweet 

      taboo?

Battles

Battles  Standing right smack  In the middle of the fray No time to react So much coming my way Duck dive twist run What are we fleeing from? Life.    At times Pushes right to the break How much more can pile on my plate? But I somehow manage We all do it seems Until the next twister Rips at our seams And when the storm passes We look back with grace And love and compassion and awe on our face Who knew we could do it? Life, we create.   D.R.H. Copyright Donna R. Hedges 2021

Connect

Connect Touch leg To leg Knee  To knee Whisper in ear Easily Touch on cheek Kiss on nose The beginning of something A story grows.    D.R.H. Copyright Donna R. Hedges

Who Knew

Who knew the taste on my tongue would be so very salty. Yesterday’s hurts bubbling to the surface of my eyes. Rain on the inside Rain on the outside. I miss you today Like a wound reopened. Every time I think of you, My heart weeps.   Carry on.   DRH Copyright Donna R. Hedges 2021
