    Cover Me

               Give me cover.
              Provide me shelter.
              Stretch over me.
              Make me swelter.

              Shield my eyes
              From any too-bright glare.
              Hide my soul
              From each too-deep stare.

              Stay by my side
              My nameless knight,
              Through the darkness
              Until the light.

              Give me cover.
              Provide me shelter.
              Stretch over me.
              Make me swelter.

    I do believe I could make that very same request, and I certainly will too.. The next time I happen to be lucky enough to have a sympathetic ear within whisper range.... Great write dear... 10 here

    a sympathetic ear within whisper range, indeed....we should all be so lucky as often as possible. Thanks for the kudos.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
