soothe

It's been a difficult day.

I've been scared and anguished,

Thought heavy thoughts

You can see not.

Surrendered - -

White snow cloth

Muffles the world,

Muffles the words - -

Oh dear tree,

Oh dear sky...

On open palm

A snowflake landed, soft.

shush

hush

no rush -

my love is lush.

there's plenty time to heal.

now rest,

drink tea,

feel free

to be.

care for

your fragile

heel.

(and don't forget

to take hot bath

with some levander oil).

And thus,

I'm home,

with less turmoil.

Still tired, more tranquil.

With kettle on,

bath water warm

and this day

almost

done.
