An Outstretched Hand With Guest Harif
As that fragile snowdrop tentatively
but courageously challenges cold
I defy your icy stance with dignity
raising my head in delicate pride
White sheets caress the steel rail
cleansed again in chilled spaces
calling me to come back home
will the feelings ever be the same
Outside fantasies running adrift
flying kites and paper airplanes
sunlit shadows hiding all the pain
snowdrop glistens as I slip away
Satin kisses lay across yellow roses
outstretched hands and heart propose
It's going to be alright
