Thanks so much for sharing the second instalment with us. I'm moved by it, and struck by how adversity teaches us to see light in the smallest things. His poetry - he writes like a meditator - joy in darkness, breathing out - it's so lovely. I'm so glad you found this bond.
I felt the same. I feel his calm in this poem. And he is in person very calm, somber, kind, open, respected. Thanks for the support! I thought about using the NM front end, then worried it wasn't natural medicine-y enough.
