Brave Soul (A Poem For Linda Bella Wassermeister) Poem by Andy Brookes

Sometimes a soul touches you
from far across the ocean.

sometimes a soul, is soul that is wild and good and free,
ending and beginnings are so hard sometimes.

sometimes you know someone so little a time
and yet they change you in ways you never thought.

sometimes a soul is brave even the face of adversity
and though you know them very little you will miss their presence.

sometime knowing they are in the world gives comfort,
and makes you smile when you think of them writing just like you.

sometimes a soul makes you feel so humble and small
when faced with their bravery you want scream why?

sometimes, ohsometimes, yes sometimes,
words are not enough.
