Fly

never shall you fade, on clouded days of dreary kisses nor sunny folds of kite string hugs for in my heart I hold you, gently by your wings so that forever you may fly

Thanks so very much Jo. Yeah, a heart was much easier than a fly. : ) I appreciate your kindness my friend.

Morning Chris. And the reader did fly. We readers see the shape and design. Your entry proves that an entry does not have to be of length for any consideration. This is beautiful in every way. Well done on all counts.

Thanks so very much Lisa. This was an older one I found rooting through a file, I don't normally post shaped poems but I liked this one a lot when I wrote it and I am happy you enjoyed it as well. Your kindness is always a gift to me.

How did you do that? I have yet to figure out how to center my poems let alone put them into shapes. Great work Chris... (I'm Challenged)

I wrote it in outlook centered until I got the shape as close as I could then copied and pasted it here and then centered it here. I can't show you how to center because the code won't work in this box. I am glad you liked this one my friend.
