Notes About The Poem
Line Gauthier's Bite Size 94 Poetry Contest...submitted 5 Dec 2024

Heron

light gently sailed before me,
it was a heron, fragile being-
her white hair flowing over mine
like the touch of  heaven`s stars;
splendor fell upon my soul,
 I`ve seen her purity swell within.

Nette I find it remarkable how you take something like this encounter and elevate it with words of magic. It does make me smile and shows how you view the world with such very positive projection from your own soul. Really remarkable to see kindness expressed like this. Smiles!
