I AM YOUR HABOUR by Becky Hemsley


"I AM YOUR HABOUR"
by Becky Hemsley

I am your harbour
And you are my sea
For I am your safe place
And you are my free
Teaching me love
I had not known before
With still many depths
That I’m yet to explore
Your waves and their power
All fill me with wonder
And keep me afloat
When I think I’ll go under
Some days you’ll break
And you’ll billow and crash
And some days you’ll ripple
A soft, gentle splash
You’re a constantly moving
Continuous flow
And when it’s relentless
I want you to know
Whenever your tide
Has grown tired of its ebb
Sail back to the harbour
And there you can rest
For I am your harbour
And you are my sea
I am part of you
And you are part of me
And there’s layers and depths
That I never had known
Until I had two oceans
All of my own
*****
For my boys
Stunning artwork by the immensely talented Lucy Campbell
This poem is from my first collection.
