The night was settling ...
into the eaves...
He said to her as she arose.

For every stone that is thrown
He meters it out, For the foundation bountiful, of his home. ... For Every stone that is brought, He plants a garden, With flowers dripping Over the edges of their pots … For every stone I bring … He holds me with his tears, Carries me past my fears … And offers me, a glass of water. © jan leree 2012 When fall leaves hold on until spring ...
I am held, from beginning 'til end. You leaf my life ... ... with grace, color ... and beauty. (c) jan leree 2012 Home is not about land
Or architectural structure … Or dependent on paint Or wall hanging textures. Home is about the passion ... Of the hearts, within its rapture... © jan leree 2012 Me to you ...
or you to me ... something worth having ... It's value increases with the wait. (c) jan leree 2012 It is so easy,
To miss … To walk hastily on by … But then I see with absolute clarity, The Love that is reflecting right before my eyes… © jan leree 2012 Shelter me in the day
As it is done. Shelter me in the morning, As it is born. Shelter me in the carving of your land. ... Shelter me, In the cleaving of your hands. © jan leree 2012 He winds down,
Calling it the end of the day … Hours before the moon … While I am still ready to play … His soul Is time zones ahead of mine … Mine comes along, with the spice and seasoning of time. He forges into tomorrow … While I am still lingering in the lessons of today. My love and I … Worlds apart, yet … We may be closer than we’ve ever been. © jan leree 2012 |
