My brother is diabetic since he was 14 and ever since I get my blood checked for that twice a year. In 1997 my thyroid was removed and I'm on medication for eltroxin. My doctor insists on taking blood at least once a year and checking everything, so I think I'm ok.
We all are inspired by certain people now and then. I too have a few and Bobby is one of them. He often encourages me when I’m low, he always has advice to offer and he makes me smile. I end my mails to him with a little greeting that I reserve for special people like him, and that’s what He made of it:
Love and Light (Written for Andrea) By Bobby 7
I paced the floor until the dawn, I couldn’t sleep, last night Then, on my screen, I saw these words: “I wish you love and light”
They made me stop, and catch my breath They brought me close to tears These little words that mean so much Just chased away my fears.
The words were written by a girl In a far off, distant land And yet, when my heart saw these words ‘Twas as if I held her hand
The depth within these simple words Warmed up my world; so cold And spoke to me, in simple terms Of, a Lady, With a Soul.
(I hope you like it)
I am touched by this poem and I’m sure others will be touched, too. Thank you Bobby for this poem and the feeling that for once I was an inspiration.
(BTW: Bobby and I agreed to publish this in the forums)
