I Will Remember You

On a day
when words of wonder fail to come
to describe the beauty in what I see
when I am simply overcome
and my quill is kept still;
I will remember you -
that you believed in  me
and were kind enough to express
that belief  in such a beautiful way.

At a time
when the right words would not come
to give voice to a moment, a  feeling
when uncertainty knocks 
at the door of my heart;
I will remember you -
that you had faith in me
and were generous to provide
the warm wind for my soaring flight.

For now,
know of my sincerity
when I want to simply  tell you
the words that  won’t be kept inside.
From the warmth of my heart
to the purity of yours;
Thank You.

Thank you for coming this far, Noel. The person is a "she", I have concluded. Apparently she made the gift not because my poetry is that impressive, but for a reason only she knows. I am just glad that excellence in poetry is not her reason, otherwise I wouldn't have made the grade...haha! hugs

Who ever gave you this gift is truly an angel. Because they recognized a talent such as you. When you pick up that pen,many are moved by the way you express your art. If you find out who it is, tell them I said thanks because you are amazing:) Alexis
