Written for one of my best friends. Please help me to say thank you to Maymie for all that she has done. A nurse who always knows the true heart of people.
(thank you) My heart bleeds red, my soul craves love, To soar like an eagle or fly like a dove. Nothing much matters in these earthly bounds; Not the rust, nor the gold, nor the wealth that surrounds. I put on the paper with pen and with ink, The words of the heart we most often think. For the gold is the sky, freedom is bird, Life is the blue, and the stories unheard. — Deb
