SO NATURAL

While we were camping, we were taking a walk around the campground. A very large family were camping nearby. Cooper, a cute blond seven year old, came over to me on his scooter. Cooper and my interaction was so natural; so spiritual. The feelings, even though surprising, were so beautiful.

Cooper's family were close by and I was amazed by what a family member told me about the recent loss of Cooper's grandmother and, in addition, informing me that his mother had just walked out on her family. Cooper had such insight as he unsurprisingly knew what to ask me. His words came out so naturally, so beautifully, that I reacted in kind. It was an amazing interaction. I hope he continues to reach out and receive all the love a seven year old unconditionally needs.


SO NATURAL　

We were strolling through the campground
passing by a large family group sitting outside.
A cute seven year old scooted up to me and asked,
"Are you here to find me?"

He asked so naturally, so full of love,
as I to him in return answered, "Yes."
I bent down to his level and he hugged me
so tightly, so beautifully; then he was off.

A family member came over and said,
"His grandmother just died.
She had short hair just like you";
while sadly adding,
"His mother just walked out on him too."

I felt Grandma used me as a vessel
to let her grandson know he is forever loved.
She, hopefully through me, gave him reassurance
that love is always and forever around him.

It was so natural; so normal for him to reach out.
I believe he saw my spirit; my soul.
He recognized unconditional love
and reached out knowing it would be there
through his maternal Grandmother's natural
          and forever loving spirit.
