I wrote this poem with my daughter in mind, each stanza is a bounce back between our perceptions, her life brings back a connection to humanity and the Divine that seems otherwise elusive amidst likely many of our collective trials.
Regulation
Isolation
New realm overlay
Growth sweat and tears
Conquering little fears
Scoring among my peers
Pulse check
Mandate Seizures Stimuli
Wakes Funerals time to cry
Solidarity in the sky
text, like, reply
Hug, Kiss, and goodbye
Feel me one more time
Pulse check
She is worth all my dares
God please take my cares
Sunset viewing nightly prayers
Very nice write up, I enjoyed reading it and yes, life can be very hard at times but we always have to remember why or who we fight for that make in one way or another our burdens lighten, thank you for sharing ☺
thank you for the thoughtful reply and kind words!
I like the rhythmic device of the line
'pulse check'

It breaks the poems up well, and the imagery is short but to the point. Just like the growth of a young mind, I guess.
Great read, I really enjoyed it 👍
thank you for the kind words and feedback !
