The word for this Friday is:
Close
start:
I search the depths
and cannot find the ending
I call your name
it echoes in the emptiness
There is no
purchase for my feet
The ground slants
steep
I reach to touch your
face
and feel the emptiness
of space
I empty my hands
in surrender
You draw me close.
stop

Stopping by from Five Minute Friday. Thank you for your words. At the end of yet another draining and challenging week, they were a quiet reminder to me to let go and allow myself to be drawn close. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteHi Linda, thanks for stopping by my site and leaving such a nice comment. Your poem is beautiful. It gave me a feeling of peace and trust and that sense of comfort I love.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. I loved visiting you. I read your profile at the top. I can't wait to read your sometime novel. Good luck on that! I would love to follow you. I am back to blogging after a little absence. It was nice to meet you today. Thanks for such a beautiful post.
