There you lay
Head in lap
Looking at me
Looking at you
Funny thing happened
There in that
We both disappeared
Went somewhere else
We know where
Of course we
Know don’t we
The same place
We always go
When we’re together
The little treehouse
Called our hearts
Sometimes in life
You find one
One that understands
Takes away time
And all concern
Simply lets you
Be just you
And when together
A miracle happens
Something so unexpected
The world stops
And takes notice
But notice them
We do not
In those minutes
All we see
Is just us
Who we are
To each other
One tiny moment
At a time
You do love
These cloudy morns
They blanket you
From your woes
Like ear muffs
Warding off frostbite
They protect you
From the world
What I like
About gray days
Is that they
Just like you
Will eventually shine
Out both come
From your dens
Ready to start
So with you
I do agree
Sometimes we need
These sullen days
If for nothing
More than tomorrow
It is not
That I miss
You it’s just
That the tiny
Filaments of your
Life have been
Spun into the
Fabric of mine
In time I
Will simply tuck
You away safely
In the corner
Of my closet
But until then
I will wear
You for you
Keep me warm
Last when I
Spoke to God
He said two
Things to me
Which I didn’t
Understand yet trusted
Let him go
Let him be
Sometimes you never
Realize their meanings
Until after you’ve
Passed through the
Storms eye and
Are delivered new
God didn’t suggest
Saying good bye
He meant as
You have him
Nor did He
Mean silence but
As he is
Trust in Him
And just the
Things He says
He knows peace
Best and precisely
What it takes
To get there
