What a gift
When life forks in different directions
And spoons dwindle
When the entire place setting in the metaphorical motherfucking table of life is upended
That there are those who listen
Who share, near and far,
These affirmations of care
Of peace and empathy and love
What a gift to meet people
Through screens and pixels
Through shared pictures of art and poetry and life.
Through scratching of writings, sharing of words
People who lift you up.
Who extend a hand and pull.
Who bring calm to your chaos.
What a gift.
And what a wonderful opportunity to reciprocate
