1655

I have counted 8 blossoms on my Desert Rose


wake swaddled buds
sunshine is there already -
warmth of welcome

❧✿❧

those hands that seek
soothe cradle and cajole -
tag them mother


❧✿❧

to sleep a dream -
sunsets scrawl their golden light
before cobalt night

    I really liked the way you wrote about mothers' hands, Gillena. Indeed they are soothing hands that one remembers throughout one's life.
