EXPRESSIONS OF AFFECTIONIf you should find a worm at your window sill,Would you recognize it as a giftFrom a bird that loves you?And if you should find a dead birdAt your back door,Would you recognize it as a giftFrom a cat that loves you?And if you should find a catCurled up in a basket by your bed,Would you recognize it as a giftFrom a mother who loves you?And whenever you should open your front doorTo find an infinite gardenFilled with people of many colors,Would you recognize these flowers as a giftFrom a father who loves you? ― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
