About Lynn

Ask me things about now

Let’s talk about the things we see

Enjoy me for what I am

Don’t grieve for what I am no longer

Enjoy things with me

Every now and then point out something new

And maybe surprising!

I can find joy with your help

And sometimes even without.

Holding hands is nice

Warm smiles warm me

Hugs tell me of you and of me

I can sometimes go beyond what you see

Help me find those places to go

Help me feel the strength of going

The fascination of those places

These is so much of the best of me still here

Help me to realize it

Help me to share it.
