Aba Brother

I only have two more days of meds left so I hope it’s better by then. Finally seems to be less coughing and perhaps it’s decided to leave me now. I hope so. I really hope so. Thank you so much.

Re: Thanks Sis,

Hope you're fine and doing well on the health front. I admire your close reading and the fine comments thereof. I know you're no less when it comes to expressing in words. Thank you.

It's all so true. It's subjective in a way, yet good poetry is just that, and I think, truth is the basis for at the very least, good poetry. Great, however, falls into the categories of which you tell us. To find one's feelings, then to put them to words in a manner of depth, exposing one's soul yet retaining a distance, it a talent and a gift. Thank you for putting this into such delightful words, something I could not do.
