Sweet Soul Shirley

I’ve met a friend on Poetry Soup
Who really tugs at my heart
She is caring , sweet and kind
Her poetry heartfelt , funny and smart

We are very different in age 
But very same in heart
She is such a genuine being
Which I sensed from the start

I feel a motherly connection from her
Through a screen and distant miles
She possesses something special
Which just makes my heart smile

I wish we could get together
Over a coffee or a tea
I would give her a huge cuddle
Chat and laugh for hours happily

Deborah, I could hardly believe the caring and thoughtful poem you wrote for me; it made me feel very emotional, and I will keep it forever. I have been thinking of it since I received it this morning, and words cannot express what a lift that gave me. I am fortunate to have you as my friend. Heartfelt thanks, Deb. Love Shirley X
