The Secret Acknowledgement  

 
She looks up—when she remembers,
Not often enough, 
And thanks them
For helping,
For protecting,
For her space  
And place,
For caring, especially, as she is told
They do. 
 
Then she turns to her right,
Looks shoulder high,
An arm’s length away, and
Thanks her special one.
Sweetheart, is the name.
 
Then she asks for poetry,
If that be the promise,
And for peace
And protection,
If that be the way.
 
Then she smiles,
Inhales their response,
Looks back down,
And silently goes about her day.
