deep surprise, discovered recently
entirety of life, even destiny,
bound in kinship's similarity,
drawing close, eventuality
change of schedule, meeting places,
activity realigned, seeking faces,
accommodation adjustment
for sharing quality time
touched, shared, encouraged to fly
friend's impact, sustaining life
finding ways to overcome deficit
one to build on, not to risk it
difference made here, inestimable
willing to do whatever it takes
priority encounter raises the stakes,
never an overreach

Whatever it takes.
keeping love alive, that is what i read in this, i like the optimism and perseverance.
Wow, you have a great poetic heart! Your words still echo in my ears. Keep it coming! Good job !
I love the energy of this, Larry!
Love how you've interwoven the different obstacles that ultimately lead to "willing to do whatever it takes..." Lovely, Larry
Happy Father's Day! :))
I think you know that I am not a poetry person for me. It is a struggle for me. I liked this one and especially the photograph of the painting. Cute.
Oh yeah! And Happy Father's Day!! What are you doing today?
