A Blanket of Love
By Dr. Beverly Y.
Murdock
Little
Voices speak
before we understand.
All
knowing, so soon
Touches
gladly accepted
Soothing
questioned responses
Inviting
warmed, Butterfly kisses…
Softened
cheeks
share intimate spaces
with bristled, stubbly
beards.
Demonstrated
channels of love
warm tired, weathered
hands.
Affirming
generations of
nurtured care.
Listening
follows rippled paths
from tiny hearts
alive
tempered, comforting waters.
filling unfathomed voids.
Connecting
dusted particles
