Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

My Surrogate Daughter

Just spoke with my surrogate daughter

The sweetest young treasure I've ever known

A beautiful flower alone in a field

Her beauty is beyond words

Both her visual countenance and her inner beauty

Shine forth with such brilliance

To light up my life, to show me goodness

A smile that exhibits an inner warmth

With a glow that melts my heart

There are many friends and acquaintances

That have entered and exited my life

But none so sweet and charming

I am so proud of my darling surrogate daughter

Carol Eastman January 17, 2015 at 10:27 AM WOW! Dragon is a bit put out here. Silly Dragon! There are others in Jacks life, too... Like his Cathie, children, grand children, and friends. What you're shocked that you're not his only love? He is Santa Jack, you know! Remember that spreading the love around thing we discussed. Now, Come out of that corner and I'll dry your tears, with your favorite blankie. Gee Dragon! He loves you too! I think it's nap time for the poor fellow. He'll be fine when he wakes up... Two is such a delicate age! Jack Ellison January 17, 2015 at 10:33 AM Not sure about this but I think I'm really starting to believe these guys of yours exist! LOL Oh no! XXX
