Security Blanket

Security Blanket 

No chance of rain tonight,
No bogeyman, when I turn off the lights.
A phrase I found and adore with the warmth of your security.
You are the reason I attain true maturity.

I love when you lay down next to me,
Like the high tide of the sea,
You move all the warm emotions inside.
My arms are the comfort you use to seek and hide.

Your nestle holds a true rhythm that hums its own song~
Nothing comes close to breaking this precious bond~
A sweet cradle-song only I hear,
You play my grin, without the strings of a puppeteer.

My heartbeat needs its fix and drug,
Your sweet, charming smiles and hug, 
Is all I need to succeed, 
You are, my only creed!

A kiss, I give on your forehead,
Into a poet’s world where your blanket a dulcet lullaby, 
my arms are your bed.

“Goodnight Sweet Child, Sweet Child of Mine!”

Hello my dearest sis! I was online since lunch time. I woke up so late this a.m & I signed in right away before I took my breakf-lunch(2-in-1). How are you? I've read first your poem and Royal's and I couldn't help myself but moved in tears. They're so perfectly great and touching. Well, hope & pray, you're feeling better & better now. I'm stopping by again to send a hug and to thank you for your loving & wonderful comments, the honor, my win & everything. I'm embracing them all! Love4evr, Leo

Who knew PD would win an adorable poem contest?...haha. Congrats! And yes, we are neighbors. I come to Texas sometimes to hog hunt, although there's enough in Arkansas now, so I don't really need to. I used to have family in Tyler that I would visit sometimes, but they're all gone now..
