In
the adamant love of my father
In
the abiding love of my mother
In
the resolute love of my brother
In
the reliable love of my relations
And
my extended family
No
matter what!!!
Some
may call it unconditional love
For
me it's fierce kindness—
I
have seen it traverse space and time
As
if the effort required didn't matter
As
if costs were not in the calculation
As
if faithfulness had the tensile strength of titanium.
And
now Kathy is my forever love
Who
sums up all I have ever known about love
In
its simple sweetness
In
its ability to make burdens light
In
its mystic obviation of time and space
In
its unfathomable depths of loyalty
And
its limitless measures of light.
Once
again I am amazed
By
the plain and simple fact of fierce kindness
Gifted
to me in generous love.
