Kindness
(For Susan)I thought I was dead
No pulse, or barely one
No feelings whatsoever
Isolated, alone and not minding it
A well inside me had been blocked
Miles of concrete preventing the flow
Nothing grows without water
I don’t grow either
But a detonation has occurred
The well is gushing forth with nourishment
Kindness, caring, and thoughtfulness
Are flooding my fields
You opened the well
You inspire kindness and thoughtfulness
I’m growing again
And you are the source
