Haiku to the Comforter
by Andrea Sanderson
i
Precipice of doubt
urgency of your fingers
tugging at my spine.
ii
You saved me from me,
beckoned me to fall back fast.
I land in your palms.
iii
You blanket my heart.
Swaddle my thoughts as infants
with warmth and wisdom.
Precipice of doubt
urgency of your fingers
tugging at my spine.
ii
You saved me from me,
beckoned me to fall back fast.
I land in your palms.
iii
You blanket my heart.
Swaddle my thoughts as infants
with warmth and wisdom.
