An Invaluable Gift
It sure was profound,
the joy that engulfed me,
As I stumbled upon;
That poem she composed.
Indeed it is those little acts,
the thoughts, the whispers,
that go unheard and
You never do know who does
remember you nor
who prays incessant.
And when you see that one face
all you feel: ecstasy!
Her mouth forms each word
And her hands, those soft fingers,
etch them to paper.
Her handwriting, I
can visualize, in that, like
many things, we're twins
Each pleasant letter
slowly sinks into me … Delight
Is me and I it.
He had left me alone
For a while now I’d ached.
He just came along again;
And my eyes wet, for
I feel life and truth and joy,
surge through my dyspeic veins
