Notes About The Poem

(Original Format)

. . . a souvenir of selfless stars salute,

            shine and shimmer.

 

          in a secured state:

silvery shadows share secluded silence,

      scintillating, becoming dimmer.

 

 

      you -

sustaining like a synchronized swimmer,

show me, our syllables still glimmer

Author’s Note: In moments of solitude, it’s all about attitude.

Through those moments, you reassured me, and I encouraged you.

Many wonderful blessings to you. :) Hugs and smiles, Brandy
