Rare Flowers

Rare Flowers A woman I know – always there. A helping hand for all – works for Share. A heart of gold – this soul doth care for the needs of lives – nothing fair, for them it seems – lost dreams, she is rare. This rare flower – I see – gives voice to what is missing – her name is Joyce, Joyce, is ideal, is positive – is a great choice for a world in dire - desperate need of her to manage - homeless to feed in this world - dominated by greed. This rose germinates great seed, even if one’s dreams – turned to weed – never to see the light of day – ever again – yet her and they, will forever remain. B. J. “A” 2 April 22nd 2004

Hello Jan : “ Joyce sounds absolutely wonderful ”. She was at the time I composed that poem my Dear, so I thought. Time and circumstance have a way of unmasking and showing the true colours that lay behind the façade. “ Hugs jan xx ”. Back at you Jan, and may the Christmas Season bring to you all that your soul requires and some of what your heart desires . B. J. “A” 2 ( Bill . )
