I WONDER HOW MANY MEN REALLY APPRECIATE THE WONDROUS SPLENDOR OF SUCH A GIFT...? A STRONG...YET...SO DELICATE WORK...THAT 'HERALDS' WHAT WOMEN REALLY WANT. BEAUTIFUL! FROM THE FIRST WORD TO THE LAST...I WAS CAPTURED. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS YOU. LOVE,

Dawn - The first lines of Handle With Care:
rapped in a labyrinth of thought,

she once worried about the finality

of making decisions, for often her

choices were born of the heart,

invariably proving her wrong.

make me think of the words of Pascal ( I think)

"The heart has its reasons the head does not know."

Glad your poem ends with someone who appreciates one who listens to the heart in spite of the vulnerability and pain it can cause. - David

"unwavering protection"
there is much comfort when one finds this.
Love the elements of vulnerability, sensitivity, melancholy, and hopefulness in this ...

Love...that emotional commodity that many wish and that few have got.
But those that really have it, also have all the protection, like the hand of God protecting that butterfly above, from any harm.

A very well worded expression of your thoughts Dawn...love is a most delicate emotion tied to every motive that touches our hearts, mind, and soul...precaution, and decisions are the answers where we find ourselves moving with the ever changing world of romance...

nice...

A lovely write. I kept wanting to associate it with the butterfly, except I couldn't make the link except that the butterfly is delicate and so is the human psych.
