For Lesley

Never underestimate
The gift that's in your hands
Beneath your touch, I just let go
No matter what my plans

Somehow, you just seem to know
What I need and where to go
In my body, where it's tight
As my mind maintains the fight

It seems in me you feed that place
Where love doth rest in angel's grace
Through your palms, to me such love
You give with something from above

Unconditional, I feel your hold
Encouraging always to unfold
Such gentle touch, which means so much
And tenderness, I can't express in words how it makes me feel

Deeper and deeper emotions arise
They are what they are, even in their disguise
And I am so blessed, that you're in my world
That you crossed my path as my body uncurled
