Liquid Poetry: My Andréa
I behold the magical, here to see The beacon to my existence arrived A gift unimaginable, elation washed over me A moment of joy so sublime The beginnings of life unfold To hold your hand, to guide, to teach A mission I cherish to the end of time A stable path you have paved Be resilient, be determined Defeat adversity, leave none ignored Here lies growth in strength and character For what you do is who you are Need a pillar to lean on, I will be there A voice to resonate by, within earshot away Have no hesitancy, no worries Nothing can be lost to the wind Thinking of you, great pride reigns Stay kind, caring, true, always loving Forever be in the moment Through my eyes, it is the fabric of your being From the heart, a father reflects The cutest baby girl you came into A shining star you have become A wonderful woman you will always be
Momentous
Born in Saigon, Vietnam, I arrived in America at seven years old as a war refugee in 1975. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy, happily married with two grown children, and reside in Colorado. A horrific injury in 2014 forever changed my life, leaving me an incomplete quadriplegic. Despite facing this unexpected journey, living in the moment remains fruitful, joyous, and appreciative. To be human is to show kindness to one another. Let go of your fears, prejudices, and desires and be alive in every waking moment to cherish the gravity of life and the gifts it has bestowed upon us. Turn and look at the person to your left, right, and all around, and project your inner being to be good to yourself and everyone. We are all born from the same fabric, so surround each other with unconditional love, support, and warmth in your hearts. Our time on Earth is precious and should be embraced with immense gratitude.
