My Favorite Devonshire

Carolyn is that unique friend
who imparts encouragement
by restoring a thrill that was dead;
her uplifting comments have made realize
the worthiness of my talent...
it's a friendship that motivates and surprises!



She could be a thousands miles away,
and still finds time to respond and even pray
when somebody's heart needs solace...
there she smiles with the kindest eyes!



Carolyn has a passion which amazes us all;
her poetry and stories are full of human comprehension
never hesitant to reach out and intensely love...
who wouldn't want to be her friend and get her attention?


She's not afraid of admitting her physical pain and loneliness,
searching for miraculous ways to cope with her boldness, 
but she'd find much comfort, if we consoled her with our understanding...
lessened the burden of her worries by reaching out with a happy feeling!

Dear Andrew, your kind wods mean so much to me. For the contest, you are supposed to pick one poem and write about what it means to you. If you want to, I would recommend "Evolution of a Life Shared" or "Disposable Wisdom. What a joy it was to see this today. And you DO comfort me, Andrew. You always have and will remain one of my favorite people. Love, Carolyn
