My emblem of compassion

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Free verse
My emblem of compassion
Sweet cascade of holy grace
You flew into my loving arms
From heavens soft embrace
Let me follow your sweet bliss
Forever my love is here
writ upon your tender face
Open heart you offered me this
Until we part each memory
captured in each wistful kiss
