My Timorous Wings
A love poem for my husband, who has always given me space to spread my wings
Faltering in self-doubt, I fell
and forgot that I had wings
Without joy, I was earthbound
and could not see the sky
Then you came into my life
You raised my eyes once more
back to the forgotten sky
In your breaking through the storm smile
Embraced by the love in your ebony eyes
from your heart, reminded me I could fly
You dusted off my timorous wings
You gave me space to spread my wings
with whispered kisses on your breath
the wind beneath my wide wings spread
And, when my strength is not enough
with your strong arms enfolding me
You spread your own wide wings
That we might fly unfaltering in tandem
