A Lady Tattoo

Hummingbird
   motionless now
      hovers still
         rising, falling
            on my breast
               as laughter rings
    it doth animate his wings.

TRUDY,, Stopping by to greet you and every other soup poet, with a special thank you comment, during this wonderful Thanksgiving season. Hope you do not mind the time I am taking to express my sincere appreciation for any support you have offered during the years, or time you have been here on the soup. I am deeply thankful and extend to you my best wishes for a happy and healthy Poetic Magical Thanksgiving Day. *Always & Forever, the Poet Destroyer; -*
