the soul's blanket

the blanket of the soul
is warm, wide...infinite
washes away fear
with valor

hate
with love

greed
with generosity

cruelty
with kindness

it grows with each
connection
soft and threaded,

a web of life and air.
of sweet whispers
of loud hurrah's
of you and  me's
two's and three's

of lakes, seas
flowers, trees
twine and lace
gloves and grace

small and great
it stays up late
into the cool, cool night
of tempted fate

under a fort
with a blanketed soul
keeps us warm,
keeps us whole.
