Found My Niche

What joy
What comfort
To find a niche
Where kindred spirits abound

Where we are encouraged
To be ourselves
And delight in others
Showing our true colors

How profound it is
To connect on that human level
Sharing opportunities
To appreciate each other’s journeys
With tendered words and views

Passions and aspirations
Life obstacles and vulnerabilities
Divulged with open heart

Allowing others to
Touch us in so many ways
Inviting them into our bubble

Some just connect
Like long lost friends
Forever leave their mark
