Common Beautiful Wings

The sorrow felt with a baby boy’s tragic death, watching him suddenly take his final breath- The softness and compassion in words spoken, when outside the poetry world, kindness awoken. I wish to mend the one who wears a wing broken. Similar styles either in rhythm, rhyme or metaphor, always been so beautiful, for her poetry I adore- each sentence with her pen I laugh, or I cry, and yet with those broken wings she has learned to fly; a woman in which I can completely identify. Ease and comfort in her poetry that I venerate, and shows such benevolence free of haste and hate- She resembles an angel with long beautiful hair, I too have long hair and like her, and show my loving care. We have so much in common if I really did compare. I wish one day to meet her though we live far away, I would give her a huge hug and have so much to say- I strive to be as gifted as she is without uncertainty, I know she knows she has much in common with me. For there are no wings more lovely, many will agree. April 30, 2018

Laura, oh this is so beautiful, this tribute brought me to tears. You write what I have known for a very long time, although we have never met in life and that is only because of distance, we are soulmates true and true. We have such a similar style of writing it is uncanny and our history of death and grief is so familiar as we both lost a sister in a tragic way, both lost our baby boys at birth, both lost beloved pets and probably lots more. Thank you. (PS- please check your soupmail)

when I saw this contest I instantly thought of you. I just had to take a while to find the right words to express my love and gratitude. You are the best and will always hold a very special place in my heart sweet Broken Wings...(and I will never call you by your real name, for some reason I feel your real name is Broken Wings...) hugs and blessings, Laura :)
