P-C 27 and 28



                                              P.C. # 27
                                              ======

                                    Alight upon her tippy toes

                                     Her words find strength

                                           A melody grows

                                 I see her dance on garden wall

                              With tiny wings, bright yellow shawl

                                 For in the midst of winter's chill

                                  She bid me write, and so I will




                                 
                                          P.C. # 28
                                          ======

                    She used to tease when I closed my eyes

                        Winged words adrift like butterflies

                        I'd groan and moan and grab a pen

                           Turn on the light and write again

                             I won't ask why she flew away

                             Upon that bright October day

                                     I won't ask why

                                      Again, I'll cry

                                For oh! I know too well

                                 She visits not my hell

                                 And so I'll dry my tear

                                Now grateful she is here

                              Thanking my precious man

                                Because he understands
