I See You

I see you looking at me, in all of the detail that would send someone infinitely paranoid into oblivion.

I see you looking at me, trying to understand what is happening to you -- I see you looking for your answers by looking at me.

Those answers aren't here.  They are inside you.  Sit quietly; maybe you will understand.  Listen to the world that you love, not the pain that has been driving you.

This is a soft landing spot, where friends are welcomed with warmth, safety, food and drink.  We, us 5 here, would offer kindness to anyone who entered our midst.  We've helped you, and when you are ready, you will know.

We sit by the fire.  We enjoy each other...cats, dogs and a roaring fire on this chilly winter day.

We don't know you, but we see you.


We welcome life...as it is.
