I’m wondering just now, if I have forgotten
to tell you
how very much I admire your strength
and always
how much you are willing to give
in your own
gentle kind of way
I wondered if I had said to you lately
how much I appreciate
the things you do, even when
or most especially when, you don’t even realize
you are
doing it
even the smallest things, with might
I wonder sometimes if I have said Thank you enough
in ways that you can hear
(when sometimes it might seem
your hearing is
not
so
good)
wondered still, if I have been able to
find the right words
to tell you
how very much I am so often
amazed
by your kindness
and your heart
if perhaps I had mentioned
how very wonderful it feels to really,
really
like you
and the comfort I feel,
in your presence
so that then
should there come a time
when we could not be together
for a stretch
or hadn’t possibly even seen each other in years
(or ever)
you would know
still
how very much I do carry your dearness
just here
in the palm of my hand ♥
