Hiya hun - FINALLY get round to being able to read your posts! I won't gush, because you know I love your writing, just to say that this starts with a soft and whimsical sound and rythm, which seems to flow with the thoughts of safety, calm, and then you change the rythm to be more- oh, what, intransigent, not soft - as you question and show your own seeking, a sense of frustration coming in. Well, hey, I guess I'm gushing a bit again.

"Is it a soft as look,"

doesn't make sense in English, I think - "Is it a soft look", "Is it as soft as a look" - make sense to me, maybe I'm not understanding?
