Hi Neva
You don’t know me
Never met, never spoken
A glance, perchance, no, not at all
Not in any of those familiar ways
Exchanges, interactions, conversations, discussions
Only and uniquely based on those single degrees of separations that
I see you, I know you
You don’t know me
Never met, never spoken
A glance, perchance, no, not at all
Not in any of those familiar ways
Exchanges, interactions, conversations, discussions
Only and uniquely based on those single degrees of separations that
I see you, I know you
In through your son, and in turn by him, your daughter
Synergies and conversations
Warm and caring, welcoming and accepting
Intangible virtues handed across generations
Extended through family
I see you, I know you
In through friends, new, and special
Speaking stories and accolades,
Listening intently and I become to understand
In my head, in my heart
I see you, I know you
In through this community, here, gathered
Fond remembrances, each of us that requests a conclave
A special place to share, to mourn, to comfort
I see you, I know you
Never met, never spoken, never a glance between us, yet,
I see you, I know you
You are in my thoughts, you are in my heart
You are in my light.
