Clearly anxious, misinformed, she,
Caught up in believing half truths.
Effortless care, still a mystery,
Darling, then along came you.
A path you provided, as her lead,
Encouraged life bright from blue.
A lady, now reborn and finally free,
Adorning light from shadowy hue.
Observing strength, submitting,
From your power, her soul drew.
Radiant eyes beaming belief,
I look in the mirror, I see you.
What a beautiful poem. One could just sit and think about that for some time.

Hey friend. I’ve been thinking about you. Maybe a little worried about your emotional state. I hope you are ok (don’t feel obligated to share. just letting you know I’m thinking of you). Wherever you are, may His peace permeate every fibre of your being and may His love make you still and calm.
Glad to see you here.

Ohhhhh, that’s what I had figured happened. You had mentioned something about that before. I definitely agree with you. Time with loved ones should never be taken for granted, but cherished.
I hope and pray that your sorrows turn to joy in this precious time that you are having with your family Audrey.
