Seek Shelter

Seek shelter with me, when you feel low Resilience can sometimes just be a no show It's one of those things, sit down, just be When you feel low, seek shelter with me I'll wrap you in my arms, to soothe your pain I've been there before, likely be there again I offer embrace and it's comforting charms To soothe your pain, I'll wrap you in my arms Tell me what ails, let me take it from you Come sit by my side, pull up a pew Feeling loved and cared for rarely fails Let me take it from you, tell me what ails Take my hand, lay your head on my chest Allow troubles to lift, replace them with rest You and I here, float away into dreamland Lay your head on my chest, take my hand

Ahh this made me feel so much, so evocative and soul touching. Love your rhymes too and how you’ve written “ You and I here, float away into dreamland Lay your head on my chest, take my hand“ i can resonate with this poem so strongly. Fave
