Nosebleed

Comes to mind the first time my nose started bleeding all of a sudden fearing it wouldn’t stop and I would die locked in a box underground alive panic voiced on face and lips its pallor the unspeakable terror felt inside. My father reassuring with a smile and tenderness you are fine he said nose bleeds clear the mind. Like a rainbow after rain or fire melting ice his words brought back the sunshine drying tears and puffing cheeks to rosy smiles. His words lingering on in trials of sickness pain of fear wiping out easing the mind to heal quicker knowing that through illness body heals and even if it dies will be fine. Dad from Paradise at my side is smiling God is love and those who love forever are with Him and one another alive in love.
