It's beautiful. Thank you for sharing the depths of your heart.
I have been re-reading an old diary of mine (from 1973) printed with quotes by Kahlil Gibran... His words always lighten my mood.
"Happiness Now"
Without worth are the teachings and beliefs that make man wretched in his existence. And false are the feelings that lead him only to sorrow and despair. For it is a duty that man has to be happy in the world and know the roads to happiness and preach in its name wheresoever he be. Who sees not the kingdom of heaven in this world will not see it in the hereafter. We come not to this world as outcasts, but as ignorant children, that we may learn from life's beauties and secrets the worship of the everlasting and universal spirit and the search after the hidden things of the soul. - KG
Of course! I wanted to let you know that I can see you and I appreciate your work! And we humans of the 21st Century must encourage each other and not lose our connection with each other. Fluttering in like a butterfly, and back out into the breeze...
This is very, very good.
Thank you Shawn!

Yes, and I believe that as well. You will see that develop in this series.
But at first i must plainly express the plight of many that I currently see in our society and politic.
I cannot dismiss it in the length of one 30 line poem. Does that resonate with you? Thank you for your comment and insight!
It will be a process and take a few poems, but be patient with me. :-)
