another revolution

around the sun

of mindedness… you’re not who you were then

***

intended communication

to be heard

even silent… when words can deform the meaning

***

adjusted celebration

of others

to yourself… to see you more and better, to heal you

***

charmed resignation

of expectations

in freedom… of your occupation, your holds, to your dreams

***

purposeful reclaimation

of growth

each year… a journey to discover, the awesomeness in you

***

Afterword: each year my dearest friend, my chomma, writes me a poem for my birthday. This is her 2023 poetic celebration of my life journey and our friendship. All credit to Amanda “Mando” Khoza.
