Love's Guiding Light (Poetic Version)

In the realm of dreams, where aspirations reside,

I, Mutheu Alice, sought purpose as my guide.

From Kitui's embrace, a Kamba soul yearned to be free,

A devout Catholic Christian, a nun's calling whispered to me.

But within my being, another dream quietly dwelled,

A longing to heal, a doctor's touch, yet unexcelled.

To aid the ailing, to kindle joy with care profound,

This flame within me danced, love's sweetest sound.

As the firstborn daughter, sister to brothers five,

I embraced their tender spirits, kept their hopes alive.

Their second mother, my heart's devotion pure,

A torrent of love poured forth, their spirits to endure.

In the winter of 2016, as December's veil unfurled,

Within a church's hallowed hall, our destinies unfurled.

Dennis, his name etched on fate's whispered breeze,

His soul's kindred flame set my spirit at ease.

Love's symphony swelled, enchanting our souls,

Yet conflict raged within, as dreams took their tolls.

Could the path of devotion entwined with love's embrace,

Align our intertwined hearts, grant solace and grace?

In the twilight of moments, 2019's embrace,

Dennis embarked on a journey, his spirit sought a new space.

Through miles and time's cruel tides, our love stayed true,

Letters and fleeting visits bridged the distance, hearts anew.

Within my medical studies, epiphany unfurled,

Healing's melody entwined, my destiny's newly unfurled.

The dream of a nun, like a whisper, softly waned,

Replaced by a revelation, where love's purpose remained.

Together, we forged a fortress, love's resilience unyielding,

Through tempestuous trials, our spirits kept on building.

An inspiration to the world, love's testament bright,

Defying the odds, etching our story in love's resplendent light.

As I adorned my white coat, a healer's regal attire,

Blue, my color of love, kindled passion's fire.

Guided by love's luminous touch, I stood tall and resolute,

Knowing our love's journey had veered, destiny's pursuit.

"Love's Luminous Symphony: When Dreams Converge and Hearts Ascend,"

A tale of devotion, where love and purpose blend.

In the tapestry of life, love's grandeur will abide,

Our souls entwined, forever dancing, side by side.
