Just got a message from the man above.
He told me fear not my son and you are loved.
I spent so much time without dulcet tones.
I got em’ back and realized that I wasn’t alone.
The love in my life comes from family and friends.
Their love only begins and extends to no end.
Long lasting and going on forever.
I’m thankful for every bit of it that made me better.
The love I’m surrounded with improved my health.
Loved by those around me and I love myself.
High off the heart and it floats like a dove.
No matter how dark life gets, I know I am loved.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Miss Persephone's Manual to a Seemingly Ordinary Life
Miss Persephone was found at the dining table, her blue eyes swollen, her tears arriving and retreating like the tides of the ocean. Earlier that day, her family had visited her in the retirement home where she had lived for eight years. It was her eightieth birthday.

Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space ♥
Unconditional love is rare these days. I loved your poem
