Embrace

Remembering ...

Her arms around my tiny body

Her hand beneath my skull

Just at the junction with my spine

The weaker link, you may say

Her heartbeat, closer than ever

The warmth of her soft skin

The light in her tender eyes

The smile on her radiantly tired face

Feeling ...
The whole of Her all over me
From down to dusk
In my waking state and in my dreams
She is always around
Helping, comforting, encouraging
Sheltering, trusting, soothing
Fearless, confident, positive
Loving, loving, loving
