Poem: Sanctuary

Sanctuary


Sanctuary
in the whiff of scent
carried by a light breeze
unexpected but longed for,
in a hand
small and trusting
reaching out of the darkness,
in the light of blue gray eyes
smiling in unexpected acceptance
touched with happy tears,
in a smile
in a warm embrace.

Sanctuary -
braving the flow of time,
home found in a brave woman’s love.
