He Thanks a Distant Observer

I was blessed by the Lord with a very lifting and gentle breeze,
A lady entered my life and set my mind and soul at comforting ease,
She sees all that I do that is inside my thoughts and in my heart,
Peace that I needed when this began so long ago at the start.

Thank you for believing in me; this made me bright today,
I had not smiled like I did this very morning or in that way,
Simply because I was not believed before you came along,
In my prolonged grief or the lies that people create in song.

How wonderful it is to have someone who believes in us, encourages us, and holds us dear unto themselves. (God does this, doesn't he!) Nice tribute to your friend. NOTE: Thank you for your comment about my poem "Temerity." I have changed the word never to seldom in the line about meekness. Absolute generalizations almost always cause "trouble"! I responded as a result to your comment on my poem, "Miracles Happen." May God continue to be with you. Lovingly, Dane Ann
