Let's live in a lighthouse,
No sharp corners,
Just beautiful curves
For the sounds to reverberate around.
***
Let's create a soft, safe space,
Gentle words only.
No loud clumsy voices,
No sharp, pointed cross words.
***
Take time to talk out tender feelings,
With kindness and patience.
We can sit together
Holding hands, in our fireplace chairs.
***
We can curl up companionably, like cats
Read good books,
Learn and grow.
And protect our peaceful place, vehemently.
