Wow, Kathleen. Your poem was brilliant, colorful, passionate, resonant, and full of your own special brand of humor, spirit, and loving self-compassion. It brought me to tears with it’s beauty and pain. I’m sorry you didn’t get to read it yourself, but your niece did a great job with it. I hope you were able to receive the blast of love and caring that came your way when the entire Cabrillo auditorium full of people went silent and thought of you! It was intensely sent, and intensely felt by all of us! Loving you again today, my dear friend!
Hi Kathleen-
Echoing all the glowing comments about how beautifully your niece read your poem on Saturday night. She even had down some of your best inflections and emphasis and tune. It was splendid. I now you must be thrilled to know she did so well.
And echoing all the thoughts about how great to be a part of this web blog chatting with you. If only the text could smile and hug and drink tea with you. So, the day is warm, the blossoms are going crazy…they can hardly keep up. The green is greening lime like and its only a matter of days before you will be on the new path to recovery and wellbeing. SO let the sun shine. It is in my heart for you.
love, ziggy
I love you so damn much!!!!!!!!you are the light on my northbound train baby., I had a good talkin with Quan in my back yard. I was pretty much begging, then I pulled it together . I threatened her… no no….I realized that was not to cool so I just looked in her eyes, visualized her riding the white dragon up to Mt Zion crawling in bed with you and keeping you held,loved (while kali guarded the door) and then she offered you a ride back home on the healing highway. zooom zoom pain free .free of cancer and all the suffering it has caused. I will be praying, as I do everyday, on wednesday. your poet friend could put hallmark on a chapter 11 list. love ya mana jane hope you got the new Bella painting.
