Close to the Heart
Close to the heart
There is warmth and nourishment
The movement of breath
Soothes like the sea
The beat of heart
Is the rhythm of life
Notice
The grasp of hand
The peel of skin
Notice
The vibration of coo
When eyes are alert
Be here
Cocooned together
Know one another
In a new way
An energetic bond has begun
And will last beyond this lifetime
