Notes About The Poem

Hello To Friends

Across the blue sky in golden warmness,
birds fly in a 'V' shape in total grace. 
The sunshine bathed in softhearted kindness,
caressing a child's delicate blush face. 

Birds fly in a 'V' shape in total grace.
She sits entertaining in her small world. 
Caressing a child's delicate blush face
on a table set for tea; time unfurled.

She sits entertaining in her small world
by the vibrant bed of blooming flowers
on a table set for tea; time unfurled. 
She pretends she is with her friends for hours.

By the vibrant bed of blooming flowers,
she says to her dolls, "Hello, Brie and Dee,"
she pretends she is with her friends for hours, 
"I'm so glad you dropped in for cake and tea." 

She says to her dolls, "Hello, Brie and Dee," 
a perfect day against blushing blossoms, 
"I'm so glad you dropped in for cake and tea,"
as butterflies flitted among the mums. 

A perfect day against blushing blossoms,
the sunshine bathed in softhearted kindness,
as butterflies flitted among the mums 
across the blue sky in golden warmness.

OMG Eve, this is so beautiful, it takes e back to when I was so little and having little tea parties, as Caren said it does have a slight touch of sadness but so beautiful at the same time, thank you for sharing and take care........Vera

A gorgeous pantoum, Eve, and it has a little teensy bit of sadness, which I think makes it sweet and thoughtful. I enjoyed it because I have been there, as a little girl, having tea parties with my dolls. Wishing someone was there to play.
