growing again

growing again

A Poem by Emily B
"

for him

"

how do I let him know?

that we aren't offering

a space in the house

or a bed

or a leaky roof?

 

but a place in our hearts

 

all the love

and care

and support

that five people

can give

 

how do I make him understand?

that we have as much

to learn

from him

 

as he has to learn

from us

 

asking for prayers

that the answer

will find me

~ sweet emily, in such situations, only communication helps... frequent communication at that... ~ silence can destroy what words can worship... ~ conversations can build what pregnant pauses can swallow... ~ i do hope you shared this prayer with him... it would mean the world to him...

i see a few different scenarios to which these words could be attached...

and i think eventually, he will understand and accept what you are offering, for what it is..love.
