from afar
i thought i knew you
as you drew near
i knew i thought only you

SONYA KASSAM 
For me, this speaks of the essence of life… From afar, we may indeed only look alike, but up close, we are in essence the same… and of the same!

Dear Sonya,
Thank you for this brief but potent poem. What were your background thoughts which inspired this?
All good wishes,

Thank you for saying so Ranu. Glad to hear that. It was what I was working towards. Saying little but meaning a lot.
