I stay to my corner,
watching,
waiting,
crying.

I don't know you.
I have read you.
I have seen the wonders of your painting.

Yet I never spoke a word to you.

The world that is yours
is familiar to me.
I know the pain of your family.

I wish you peace
and pain free days.

And I thank you,
for showing me unending, unconditional,
enduring, soul wrenching love.

Through who you are
and those that love you.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

you know...I actually thought it was so clear who this was written for that I didn't think I needed to say...

But no...I think he is too ill to know...

Michael...

And thank you everyone for your kind replies.

I figured it out also...the painting, the
pain....never really knowing them...Yes,
many of us feel the same way of a man with
a huge heart...we love him too.

Thank You for expressing many of our own
feelings.

Thank you all!

I don't know Michael but I sit back, completely amazed at the love and devotion between him and his wife and him and our pip members.

May we all be so lucky in love.
