Sweetest Thing

She’s the sweetest thing that I’ve ever known. The kindest thing that holds me tight. I love the way she deals with all her fears. I know she will not hurt me and will be there when I grow older. I feel safe when our hearts and lips are upon my shoulder. I smell her scent like a bed of roses. Like a book with a chapter which never closes.

The Deep

In the Deep of the Woods 

The sound of the rustling leaves 

A joyful new blue bell hasn’t bloomed in years.

The young girl walks along reduced to tears

And there she lays to rest, 

Falls asleep 

 

Skies were full of gloom 

Woods were shady, dark and deep.
