Reunited

BlindManStick-1915

.

through sightless eyes
I searched for you,
my sweet sister

I stumbled on the path,
was stabbed by fear
and confusion

persisted in my search
slogged unknown streets
through sleet and snow

I listened for
familiar sounds —
your beating heart

clues led me here
so we may be
reunited

        Thank you so much, Dennis. I love my work and consider it a privilege to be present to my clients while providing an “ear with a heart attached.” Rachel Naomi Remen captured beautifully the gift of listening.
