Notes About The Poem

Louise May Alcott

A rich tapestry of colors light up her name With hues of lilac and crimson in a soft flame Whispering of the rich and brilliant praises Her words have obtained with their phrases Flowing across the page like a gentle rain Her nouns and verbs show how they do pain The hearts of millions who read their delights Caresses to the spirit who listens with insights Feeling alive to the dance her words cause Always awakening feelings to give such pause Singing with miracles from the angel’s lips Like glowing poetry left to present their scripts Heavenly skies filled with stars, moon and charms Welcoming the senses to be embraced in sweet arms Sent on the wings of doves who ease the reflections With visions of hope, happiness and inspiring connections Louisa May Alcott wrote her heart out in Little Women Giving us all reasons to believe we’d sing some hymn in The satisfaction that came from knowing such a story I doubt she ever knew her tale would bring alive such glory

A stirring tribute to a great writer, I think she would have been proud of this!
