Arthur's Instagram

I just watched a video that inspired this poem; however, it was also inspired by someone very special on PoetrySoup. She always has a kind word for people, and she always posts such lovely beautiful poems, with beautiful art and photos, and there are many days she has brought this dark soul a smile. She is humble and so sweet and kind with her words!

I also consider her an Ambassador for Norway, as now I assume all the men and women of Norway are just like her, and I would love to visit this Country. I have seen such vivid photography, it seems a dreamland!

So I dedicate this poem, to the wonderful Anne Lise from Norway!

 

So little it takes Smiles so huge they make All because Of someone like you Small gifts from the heart Lifting up those Whose days had sad starts Smiling back at someone like you So little it takes Holding open the door Sunshine it does make From someone like you If the world only had More someone’s like you We'd have so much laughter And the world would never be blue All cause Of someone like you

As soon as I saw this title on your poem's list, it reminded me of Adele's song. So I enjoyed the Youtube clip you have included here. Nice tribute to Anne-Lise.

Arthur, what a marvelous tribute to Anne-Lise or, as you so aptly said: 'Norway's ambassador'; her kindness now also shines through your words:) Amitiés

Hi Arthur, First of all I must say I love the song "some one like you " by Adele. This is such a fitting tribute piece for a beautiful lady. She most definitely brings "sunshine" to the soup:-) Alexis

The Seeker wrote a poem about poems not being read. Like you Arthur, Anna-Lise has written positive reviews about mine, even when I did not have the time to reciprocate. To know that people care enough to keep reading means so much. She is special.

I have been the recipient of her kind words. The pictures you used are beyond exquisite. It was so kind of you, yourself, to do this.
