A Humble Thanks

I’m thankful for you, whom I found Thanksgiving Day last year
I peered into a trash can and surprised you squelched my fear
Of searching vainly for a shelter, by just scavenging about
It so seemed that just that morning, someone had thrown you out

Two ticks was all it really took for me to dig you up
The joyous hope I experienced quite overflowed my cup
Upon examination I found no fault with thee
Except perhaps a tiny hole beneath your right arm sleeve

Love at first sight could not describe the way that I had felt
As I wrapped you tightly ‘round me, where should have been a belt
Slipping into you I found warmth, the first time since a tot
I thank God for that person, who left you there to rot


i actually did start writing this in novemeber.... but i couldnt make it come together. after taking a couple...ok a lot lol of months to get my thoughts together i think it all worked out.

Come my Love

Come my Love; wrap yourself around me so that your smell lingers on
Come my Love; creep into my dreams and fill my senses even when I sleep
So many days I’ve longed for you, so many nights my heart has ached
I’m a wolf running ever on, stopping only to howl mournfully for you
Come my Love; let me snuggle close into your warm and protecting arms
Come my Love; do not shy from horrors and terrors but break through
Hand in hand we stride, heads held high toward the finish line together
Calling with the voice of the heart, all other sounds fade into the night
Come my Love; let me show you all you mean to me and then some
Come my Love; may my affection match yours, inseparable to the end
