Waiting on true love...
The Singing Cloak by Diana L Crawford
Free Verse Poetry Contest contest entry



My heart holds a precious lullaby
that I long to share on twilight eves
and dawn-soft morns.

My heart weaves a colorful fabric 
from the threads of loves and losses
for one who will wear it tenderly.

My heart creates the singing cloak, 
waiting for the one who will test 
the fabric’s strength and find it good.

I wonder whose heart will cherish 
this singing cloak, resting in its
warmth on some frost-bitter night.

I wonder who will feel the meaning
of the brilliant colors chosen 
and the rhythm of its melody.

Love will come to you when it is ready,
Not necessarily when you are...Danielle Shorr
