Reach out to me
arm in arm
an archway
safe passage
for times of flight.
Reach out to me
shoulder to shoulder
a natural bridge
the unforced bend
of true friendship.
Reach out to me
hand fits hand
my cavernous companion
resonant, our
depths unseen.
Reach out to me
limb against limb
We cross the cleft
of seclusion to enjoy
life’s panoramic view.
Reach out to me
palm pressing palm
we overcome canyons
create new growth;
our bond a catenary arch.

Thank you. It’s crazy the way some people just fit together as if their jigsaw pieces were cut a certain way.

Thank you kindly, Tom. A positive write always feels nice. Sort of a cool refreshment after a few pieces that were running for their lives. 💜

Did you submit this to Rattle? I recognise the image. I submitted one – quite different in its mood. So nice to see the picture through somebody else’s eyes. I haven’t heard from them yet.
