We Are Connected By Experience

My cares and woes, he listens with his heart.
He adores my poetry and my art.
He helps me spin my truth when I am sad.
In some ways he reminds me of my dad.

I have known him since he was a young boy.
And he has given me enormous joy.
Together we have three beautiful girls.
But only one had those natural curls.

We are connected by experience.
Laughing at identical things at once.
Finish each other’s sentences daily
Living in a mutual place gaily

Often ask each other what did you say?
Mimicking parrots we are every day

Caren, So nice when you can finish each other’s sentences. What else is sharing for than told here in your poem. -Richard

Yes, it is weird and nice. We can sit for four hours in silence then we will say the SAME SENTENCE - look at each other, shake our heads, sit for another forty minutes and laugh like a hyena at exactly the same time. There is no need to talk any more.
