The Reassurance --  Thom Gunn

About ten days or so
After we saw you dead
You came back in a dream
I'm alright you said.

And it was you, although
You were fleshed out again:
You hugged us all round then
And gave your welcoming beam.

How like you to be kind
Seeking to reassure.
And, yes, how like my mind
To make itself secure
