Notes About The Poem
Alouette Poetry Sponsored by Andrea Dietrich Syllable count, 5-5-7-5-5-7, rhyme: a-a-b-c-c-b

My Secret Places



Come and follow me
to my home and see…
…come walk each step I've walked.
Let me introduce
myself, a recluse.
Each closed door your eyes unlocked.

I will let you in,
lovingly attend…
…my soft and secret places.
Shut the whole world out.
Shine a light about
all dark and hidden spaces.
