You are the poem
that
fills my heart this morning
I keep myself warm
bundled deep
within
your sweaters
and
nourish my spirit
from
the pages
of
your letters
I sip my coffee
from
your rooster mug
You
are the dream
I will awaken from
when
I
feel your true kiss
upon my cheek
Come home
safe
to me

Author Notes
Perhaps Angelheart was watching as I penned this poem....no other possible explanation for "straight from the heart". Thank you for creating this perfect piece of art!
this poem was originally given, by the author, to our US troops stationed in Iraq, Pakistan, and Aftghanistan. it can be viewed exclusively on
the web site "Delaware boots on the ground". This site
was founded in 2003 by Jill biden when the first US troops were deployed to the middle east.
