Connection

Hello My Friend,

When have you been with a group
That radiates warm community?

Pretty nice to bump elbows,
Even in a Zoom setting,
When one feels welcomed.

I had that this week
In several ways.

Social-distanced connection
With a couple of family members.
Zoomed meeting with group of women.
Masked visit with friend,
From two ends of long bench.

It’s right off my list of Five Keys—
"Connect With Others.”

Saying "Yes" to bigger things
Gets expanded & encouraged
With connections of support & caring.

Important for me to remember.
Soaking in the "vibes"
Helps me down the road—
Whatever the "road" is.

"Connect with Others"
When chances show up.
It can boost morale,
Raise the "game.”

Always helpful,
Especially in these times.

Hugs to you,
Lin

P.S. Subject of limerick was an astounding sigh for me!
