Here Take My Love It Is Solid

...here! take my love (it is solid!)                                                                                                                            

it is sanctuary from dishonest wolves that huff and puff…                                                                                                                                                    it is a shield from the unfaithfulness in the world
it is life support -a buoy from the floods of absurdity
      untie it where it waits devotedly in your heart's harbor  
            then sail in it around life’s roadblocks and setbacks
or just lie in it and float serenely on my heart's ebb and flow 
               …here! take my love (it is solid)
shine your love down on it and melt it down 
then wade through it, splash around in it… 
warm yourself in its tepid pools or
cool yourself in its tranquility 
merge your love within the depths, breath and height of it
bathe yourself in its pure simplicity or submerge deep within its complexities…..
                           where you will find it is also very manageable 
so ball it up and bounce it around when you want to play         
        spread it out and lay all over it when you don’t
or just leave it alone and watch it 
 grow and grow and grow and…

here! take my love  (it is solid!)
