Guidance Needed

She is listening,
watching, her mind
absorbing –
so many images,
emotions,
lacks the filters,
the context to frame
experience into rational
understanding –
guide her with patience;
treat her kindly.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential. View all posts by VJ

Great poem, VJ! This is a bit shorter than your usual, but I admire the conciseness 🙂

  Thanks Steve. It’s one of the collection I do for instagram with the intention of matching images with words. Concise is the goal.
