For me, I would say it very much reflects the kind of life I strive to live--gentle, loving, aware. I love to speak to people about their passion and to see them come alive. I try (sometimes unsuccessfully) to slow down and appreciate the gifts of nature. There are times when I want to say something but can't find the words--and your poem explicitly acknowledges and appreciates that.
There is permission here to be kind to oneself. In that, it reminds me of Mary Oliver.
