I thought I'd add The Blanket of Love too. I feel like sharing tonight.

BLANKET OF LOVE
When you hold my hand
It feels like the blanket of love again
That simple touch can heal a lifetime of hurts
Hurts that come from somewhere
Though I don’t know where

When you hold my hand
I feel safe
Like no one can hurt me
If I could only hold your hand forever
I would be all right

The blanket of love feels soft
It feels like you are tucking me into bed
Kissing me, and wishing me happy dreams
I feel protected and content

When you hold my hand
I know I’m not alone
You know the worst things about me
But you are still here
Giving to me without questioning

The blanket of love is warm
It is better than a cup of hot tea
It fills me up and says “aah”
So that’s what love feels like

The blanket of love feels secure
No worries about this or that
It comforts me in the dark
It says “I love you” as you are

Holding my hand is the link
It allows me to feel the blanket
It provides the fuel
For the blanket to exist

The blanket is above me
I can feel it if I try very hard
I can close my eyes and see it
Slowly the softness floats down

The blanket of love is mine forever
It’s here for me whenever I want it
It’s always within reach
I just have to look for it
Thanks for this!
