Warm Space

You are my warm place

        that safe haven to land

                 at the end of a hectic day

you are that cozy blanket 

             with soft fuzzys come to play

      joy, bliss and rapture all enveloped

 in a tiny package

     when my head is in a frenetic pace, 

i come to this space

        my heart rate settles, my soul dances,

                my mind erases the chaos

and all is right

                       with the world once again

"she's well acquainted with the touch of a velvet hand like a lizard on a windowpane" okay, now you've done it. just my fave member of my fave band of all time singing one of my fave songs....hmmm.... but , somehow, i don't think this is where your poem is coming from, even though it is an excellent choice in musical accompaniment. terrific write! ......bang, bang, shoot, shoot

[Frieda P]

I just like to keep you confuzzled. ;-)

Thanks huckleberry....

[quinfinn]

you excel at that, my dear

[Frieda P]

[quinfinn]

[Frieda P]

Featured review again, this is getting to be a habit x

[quinfinn]

no argument here...i give good review...look at my standing on the writers page...sheesh!

[Baby Ricochet]

Very nice comfy romantic write

[KAOlmsted]

I feel like this about my animals...or my vodka ;-)

[Frieda P]

You mean OUR vodka ;-P

[KAOlmsted]

I see you don't want to share the animals ;-) We got a new dog today, a German Shepherd...I'll post a pic as soon as we name her. The Brit found her at the gas station he goes to every day, she's been there a week...the cashier said someone just dropped her off there :-( She is so sweet...except she messes with the cat...and she escaped the front yard when I went to pick Morgan up from school and I had to chase her down the street...so...forgive me if I'm stingy with the vodka xD

[Frieda P]

Ha it figures, give me the animals that need care, I'm just thinking of myself here! I'll share your critters only because sent I lost my Luna, I can't even think to get another dog...

[KAOlmsted]

Our beloved Sidney was a German Shepherd, we lost him a year ago January...it's difficult looking at her and not thinking of good old Sid. I was dead set against another big dog, but I love her already so...it's a done deal. I hope she likes to travel. Sorry about your Luna :-(

[Frieda P]

Thanks kimmer, what's the new guy's name?

[KAOlmsted]

Morgan wanted to name her Kelsey and I was like NOPE *laugh* So, I don't know. We'll put it to a family vote when Nev gets home.

[Frieda P]

Ha I'm disappointed in my niece, WHAT no Frieda? ;-P

[KAOlmsted]

"Did you just call Aunt Frieda a dog???" No lie. I'm still laughing.

[Frieda P]

LOL I love that kid! MWAH!!

[KAOlmsted]

xD She is a genuine trip and a half...

[Frieda P]

Can't imagine who she takes after....

[KAOlmsted]

;-) Little kimmer...

[Frieda P]

My warm place is wrapped up in my comforter at night... I need to spend more time there. ;) Nice poem! (:

[Frieda P]

Now that sounds comfy for sure Skittles especially in light that winter seems as though i'll never end around here. :-)

[Carolann Dowsett]

How nice it would be to have a safe place, to finally be able to lay down and sleep. I love this Frieda, it took me to a beautiful place, if just for a moment.

[Frieda P]

What a sweet thing to say Carolann, thanks so much.

[Carolann Dowsett]

Welcome Frieda.

[therisa]

Reading this poem, reminds me, of my three feline companions surrounding me, on my bed, after a very stressful day, dealing with reality. Thank you, for bringing me, back into that comfort zone of mine. :)

[Frieda P]

So glad you felt that way therisa, thanks for the visit.

[therisa]

We all have our own versions of that 'warm space' to retreat too...

Nicely penned Fp :O)

[Frieda P]

Yes we do YB, I know what yours is. ;-)

[C.C. Marx]

A warm fuzzy blanket huh? That's some sugary sweet cuteness right there ;) I'm just teasing, the poem was very comforting and relaxing, you know ?

[Frieda P]

ha don't worry, the cuteness doesn't last, I'll be back to dark in no time ;-P

[C.C. Marx]

U were scaring me there for second, I was like "Frieda acting all sweet and kind, wonder what she's been drinking!" ;)

[Frieda P]

ha, one of those silly drinks with the umbrella's in it! ;-P

[C.C. Marx]

Cute but what did u put in that cute little innocent drink?!?! Don't lie to me now ;)

[Frieda P]

I think it was moonshine ;-)

[C.C. Marx]

That sounds more like the Frieda we all know haha

[Frieda P]

:-D
