sonnet #5

if i could, i would put salve on your soul-
tuck you in bed with blanket and pillow
broken pieces nice, but to see you whole!
how lovely, to have a life soft and slow

don't take something not meant to be too hard 
please know no one has lassoed a tornado
even houses cannot escape it unmarred
between these dark, dark clouds winds will blow

time has come, shake off the raindrops so wet
hold tight your heart, still rooted to the ground
no upset, no regret,  just a simple reset
think of all the beautiful life you found

the hush in the eye of every storm
lies the unbridled power to transform
