Power of One
SONNET-IN-PROCESS: Power of One
Words of concern, friendship, simple chatter
Will keep one from those dear, dear therapists
The power of your talk, a small matter,
Is oft the thinnest thread this side of death
We talked before machine and computer
And designer handbags, shoes, and cellphones
That wisdom of grandma, uncles, neighbor
Great sounding boards (old friends) now mostly gone
We can't know how one call is a Savior
On obscure small-scale, where human beings dwell
One word of support, admitting error
May save sanity in saints under spell
So, human neighbor, “human being” is right:
“Human” the dance - dancer is "Being” in delight
