"Sweetheart"

I have so much to say, she has done so much!
She chose me, became my mentor, F*&#!!!
Tears flow, heart torn but with me she remains!
She has done so much, I have so much to say!

Such power in her verse, clung to every word!
Such diversity poetically, the humble hummingbird.
Our sessions and conversations, mentally preserved
Clung to every word, such power in her verse!

I dedicate this to you, your gods soldier now
Reminiscent our different collaborations, endowed!
So "Sweetheart" starts anew, with love I bid adieu
Your gods soldier now, I dedicate this to you

				Linda-Marie Barianna "Sweetheart"

			I have nothing but good things to say about a woman
			who has inspired so many and made everyone better
			with her aura! Linda and I have collaborated on 
			three poems and a song! Her spirit will live on here
			among all of us at PoetrySoup, Smile she looks over your
			shoulder..RIP LindaMarie Barianna "Sweetheart"

Joe Flach February 13, 2014 at 11:54 PM Great tribute Jared. Linda-Marie left her mark on many of us here and many a tear has been shed in her memory. As God's soldier, I am sure she is looking down on this dedication poem and smiling. Joe Jared Pickett February 14, 2014 at 12:38 AM Many of those tears are still flowing. I have read most of her tributes tonight which inspired this. Tears of joy because that is what she brought me JOY! She took a young man with raw talent and refined, molded me into the poet I am today! I owe her the world and I know she looks in on me. I have had a lot of inspiration lately. Makes one wonder!! Thank you!!Asavvy1
