Notes About The Poem

To Anne-Lise- My Sunshine

Sunshine came to play
On each warm and golden ray~~~
letters of her name

Eileen Manassian

This is a tribute to Anne-Lise whom I call, Sunshine. She always has a sweet and comforting word for me that warms my heart.

this is really nice to write about her, Eileen. And wow, I liked how it spells down SOL. Did you do that on purpose? You made an acrostic senryu since SOL means sun.

I had no idea about the SOL thing. Wow. I'm a genius and I don't know it! ;) Thanks, Andrea. Very sweet of you.....Hugs
