The Note


For President Obama

“I expect to pass through life but once. If therefore, there be any kindness I can show, or any good thing I can do to any fellow being, let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it, as I shall not pass this way again.” ~William Penn

“To Kennedy`s teacher:
Please excuse Kennedy`s absence.
She`s with me.
Barack Obama”

I felt goosebumps on my skin,
As I read through,
The small news article,
Over and over and over again.

At the receiving end,
Wouldn`t I have died of gratitude,
Or of love?
