(we know now the darkness that was soon to fall upon us all)
My gosh…what sweetness
to suddenly hear your voice and words
singing
on the radio
this morning.
My heart needed it all.
Such heavy harrowing times.
My words are stuck and stuffed
like my head cold.
Anyways…this moment
a sweet one.
Hope this finds you well.
Much love and kindness.

Re-reading my email, with my friend’s lovely reply, knowing that I am, like many around me, at a loss for words, I knew this was “OK enough” for today’s photo and poem feature. With a line break here and there, formatted into stanzas…yes, it would be “OK enough.”
And how simple a gesture, to respond in the moment to the surge of surprise and joy upon hearing my friend’s name and then her singing, to reach out and connect when it’s darkest… before dawn.
Much love and kindest regards, dear friends.
May we all be bearing up well, responding in the moment to those many surges of unexpected joy.
So each word, each photograph, each email matters.
Each kind word, each warm embrace matters.
It’s what we have which I have to believe can turn the tide,
perhaps first within the unseen, liminal spaces.
