    Impressive poem Meme. This made me think of a mother comforting her child.

    I liked the chosen form, I think your lines fit well together and the poem flowed.
    I really liked your title!

    Nice work.

    That's beautiful...in ways I relate being an Auntie and how I'd react with what any of my nephews would confess, but also I see as a teacher and the fact that I'd always be there to comfort, but I wouldn't always be able to hold confessions in like that.

    I also thought of it as a metaphor for confessing to God about sins, and it would work as to say that you lean on him, and his heart and his guidance at times...

    You penned a nice piece Meme.
    It flowed really well and the title was eye catching and a nice short form that still gets the reader thinking.

      Thanks hun :)

      Yes, those could be interpreted in so many ways. It could be a mother holding her child, someone holding the person he loves, or simply anyone whom you would run to when you need a shoulder to lean on or someone to confess to..

    Meme- I love this form, the Triolet is a pretty form.. I felt a comforting peace, as if to say to the one that they can let go and feel comfort and love in the arms of a friend, confidant... oh this is elegant!
