Notes About The Poem

Written June 11 2026 for Serenity contest sponsored by Constance LaFrance

Serenity

Silver stars light my path
Emerald eyes that smile and laugh
Ruby kiss that sweeps me away
Elegant moods that brighten a day
Neon kiss from chocolate lips
Indigo thoughts never remiss
Twinkling stars bright as red heart
You at my side perfect as you are

You wrote my poem!!!!! Seriously, this is something I could have written, should have written. It is excellent, but then yours always are. This one hit home more than most for me, you have seen pics of my wife and I, and I think you know why. Outstanding! Ron
