Sarah Hales Poet Light Verse

My Poet Friend (Highlander)

A man of words his mind comes alive on paper
A teacher of mine his lines so fine
Wisdom is defined with his poets desire
I imagine him sitting in a meadow across from the stream 
His pen writes a life time of vibrance dreams
Always a buoyant light within his nature 
An understanding of others 
Empathy with his opened thoughts
An impact he has given through and through
An honesty in his talks 
The proudest of fathers he is noble being
A writer of a treasure chest I do call you my friend
With the highlanders dream now penned
The bookshelve is now complete.....





For PRAISE YOUR POETRY SOUP PAL CONTEST 
Hope James does not blush !!!

James Fraser July 1, 2010 at 12:04 PM Oh my Sarah, this is a surprise that befalls my eyes. A poem about me, just a Highland lad. I'm smiling so much from cheek to cheek, after reading your words I'll never be sad. It's wonderful and I feel so humbled >> James,xx
