Poem
Dear Elizabeth, From the deep ocean floor of my soul I cannot convey How much appreciation, thanks and gratitude I feel for you, for being So decent and kind As to fill me daily and completely With thoughts and words from your lovely mind Concerning the uniqueness and simplicity of my own. While I am a mere seedling of words to live by, You are a fully grown Sequoia, complete With roots, trunk, limbs and leaves filled with Immeasurable molecules of thought and inspiration. You are also one of the very few, who Take the time to read Above, below and between the lines And rarely, if ever criticize Even when criticism is overdue. Simply put, I think the world of you. And although we’ve never met I’m willing to bet If we ever came eye to eye I’d see your soul and you’d see mine From down below and farther still Into the ever expanding, blue-black sky. I don’t even know why. Other than there’s a purity in your heart That shines like gold In the early morning sun. Keep shining. It’s transforming and uplifting And gives to myself and others The light we need To keep going And flowing, like rivers to the stars. And should we meet up there, somewhere, some when I’ll know you well my friend And pray you don’t forget me from afar. Ever So dearly and sincerely, A grateful, faithful, fellow Poet
