In Closure (or enclosure)

In Closure (or enclosure)

The walls closed
fleshy membranes of protection
leaving me safe, warm, always
so much that...

I danced
reveled in my new found shelter
snuggled gently on the surface
rolled against the walls
even, kissed the floor...

you-
laughing...
opened your hand
in a telling gesture of "go free"
(if it is my will)

I smiled up at you
grasped two of your fingers
and gently
pulled the circle of your hand about me

I was home, safe at last
here in the palm of your heart

Author notes

written for the one who makes me feel safe, and at home in his heart

Please tell me what you think

oh sigh! This is just so beautiful and peaceful! As always your words drag me in, and when the last word ends I feel like I'm pushed back to reality. Like a dream! You're lucky to have that kind of person in your life. Loved it!
