                            The Champagne of Life
                                       7/26/2023

       Tis the delight of the liquid, golden,morning sun,
       Gleaming in my tall, orange juice’s crystal glass.
       Add gratitude, for you, a poet,with morals and class.

       You may not be the best poet at the top of the list.
       But to communicate your very best is your wish.
       You are not all out there, trying to be a champion fish!

       People like you. dear friend, communicate love.
       For you are the rainbow bubbles in my day’s hours.
       I read humble you, with joy, in these poetic towers

Hello Darlene! The great thing about genuinely nice people, is that these are the ones we will remember. Like a burning lavender candle’s scent, they linger on in our lives. The judgmental ones?? Are like rotting flowers. We can change others by standing beside them, but still maintaining our integrity! Deeply honored by your fav. Add your endless friendship. I crown you, FOTD..FRIEND OF THE DAY. HUGS, PANGIE XXXOOO

Good day, Arlo. Glad you see the point. I wish I knew how to write music. But….I have enough trouble with poetry.)) I realized it’s almost August. And Christmas and Chanukah will be here soon. The lights of those seasons replace the brightness of summer. Pangie.
