Milan, yes, communication is key. And your poetry touched me. I write lot of little ditties about birds or flowers I see out the window. When we moved into Assisted Living, i wrote this one. WALKING TOGETHER I’m walking with God who is holding hands with me. And Len has the other one so here come us three. The three of us are walking this expansive road of life. And we are holding tight, through the joys and through the strife. God is providing the umbrella, for when the rains of life come down. And there’s no better shelter that could ever be found. Yes, I’m walking with God and I’m holding on tight. So let the storm clouds roar, I know I’ll be alright!

*WALKING TOGETHER*
I’m walking with God
who is holding hands with me.
And Len has the other one
so here come us three.
The three of us are walking
this expansive road of life.
And we are holding tight,
through the joys and through the strife.
God is providing the umbrella,
for when the rains of life come down.
And there’s no better shelter
that could ever be found.
Yes, I’m walking with God
and I’m holding on tight.
So let the storm clouds roar,
I know I’ll be alright!
