petals
you are delicate
and i am, too
we are petals
of the flower
we make
a lovely
little
thing
not fitting
for a spring bouquet
or funeral wreath
but only decorating
this ragged plat
our sanctuary
us,
at home
safe for now
amid all
that thrives
and dies
around us

Author's Note
So lucky to have sanctuary in these days of fear and loathing.
Even with illness, our lives are blessed.

Dear J,
How sweet the read. If you have to be confined with someone it’s so much better if you like them. I love the pretty flowers I pictured by your words to create the scene of characters. Lovely way to describe them. Great write. H🌷
