Reaching Out Hand
For sn100 challenge #162: Paper

Title taken from the due South episode Call of the Wild


[Written in black pen on the back of an old memo dated September 2006 and found in the pocket of a winter coat sometime in March 2008]

When your mouth does that thing
Curves and smiles
And the look in your eyes in the morning light
The way your hand
Reaches out
Toward me as I lay
On your bed with sheets
Soft as down
In your room on the street
With the tree on the corner
And the fountain in the park
And I am safe in your arms
Here where I rest
Home, at last
With you
