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
