Let Me Hold You

Listen to poem:
let me rock you in my arms
wipe away your sadness
and sing you sweetly a lullaby

erase your worries and your frown
kiss away your fears

let me put a smile on your face 
and convince you somehow

make you believe again
everything will be ok

We all need to be held at the moment and reassured that all will be well, and I pray it will be, tenderly written. Regards Julie

I am certain if that kind of tenderness is shown to a loved one, you will definitely convince them with your loving ways that all will be OK. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.
