Rev. Rebecca Guile Hudson Poet Free verse

Cradling Beauty

I’m just
             Lying here thinking
Butterfly thoughts,

Cradling beauty in my arms,

Hummingbirds and
Lady lacewings
Aflutter lovely in my mind

I’m just lying
     Here, form-fitted
To my mattress, goose-down
             Feathers at my head,
                                            Crying in
For the joy of it

Sparkling snowflake tears
Drift softly
                  d
                   o
                   w
                    n
melt into petals of clear-pond
          water lilies

               afloat
on the shiny surface of my 
newly glistening soul

Here is the peaceful place –
Here the endless room of rainbows

I am home,
Welcome home,

I

Am

Home!
