Heart Healing
Place your own
healing hands
on your own
broken heart
with all gentleness
and with exquisite care.
The kind of care
you would afford
a tiny frozen bird
you found
there on your doorstep.
With your gentle
healing hands
speak in your touch
of warmth and love
of your desire
to make whole
what once was broken,
of your desire and your will
to right what once was wronged.
Whisper softly,
I will do
what I can
for you,
my little love.
Fear not.
I am here for you.
For sure, I am no angel
but what I have to give,
I give to you.
