Life’s Connections
Life’s long lasting early connections
unconsciously revealed involuntarily.
These crystals of fragmented memories.
Building blocks of a unique personality.
A chance meeting, an unspoken greeting.
The fleeting glance, the casual handshake.
The eye held for less than a second.
Love revealed in connections’ first take.
Struggling to make a living. Finally winning.
Joy of friendships and a newly formed being.
Triumph and support of a partner's presence.
Life’s true connections welded into meaning.
