Poetess of the Day-Thank You




Sunday, I was fearful that my house and city would be burnt to the ground.
By rioters, so I posted in a poem for prayers, from friends all around.

A fellow poetess did the most magical thing.
She wrote me the prayer she did say, it made my heart ring!


In all these decades on-line, this never happened before.
You know I gave her a shout out as I opened the deck door.

Her name to me will forever be angelic!
One who loves Jesus, far more than simply symbolic!

So dear friend~ a first place trophy is shining there in heaven for you!
You are my POTD, my very-loving, Poetess of the day, with heart that
shimmers red , white and blue!

What a lovely heartfelt tribute this is, Panagiota. It does not take much to bring happiness and serenity into the lives of others. Prayers are always welcome; they cost nothing but their dividends can be awesome. ~ Warm regards // paul

Yes, Paul, simple kindness or thoughtfulness goes a long way. A prayer in someone's own words astounded me. Beautiful poetry does impress, however, a personal prayer was so unique, Paul. Glad you liked this tribute. PR xxoo

Good Morning from Ca, Tom. Am about to call it a day! It sure helped to pray that day. Today, grandson told me today there were eight National Guard trucks parked 5 blocks from here. I am glad they were so close. I know others were praying for the safety of our town. So in regards to your reply, prayer works. It was rare to see a real prayer in a Soup Mail. Poetess is a fine woman and outstanding patriot. Thank you for the comment...Panagiota xoxo

Hello, Connie! An important , salient point! We stick together, just as we did after 9/11! Maybe some will think this silly! I do not. So glad I had made the choice to share this uplifting experience with all. Panagiota xoxo. Thank you, Connie
