To Cyndi Macmillan, From Jack Horne

By day the toys surround her in a group,
But when her little girl is sleeping sound,
The keyboard’s where our poet will be found,
To write some magik lov - her words astound;
She always brings the gift of joy to Soup.

Merry Christmas, Cyndi  xx

*For PD’s contest

Cyndi  wrote a poem, Lov is Magik, as a girl
One of her stories is called The Gift of Joy
She recently used this form, the envelope quintet, in a great poem

Jack, oh Jack! I ADORE this. Thank you thank you!!! This time of the year is extra special to me, because of my girl, my husband, but it is also a hard time for me... so much of my family is gone! My dad died in my arms on Christmas Eve. It was (hard to explain) one of the most precious, beautiful and incredible experiences in my life (he smiled as he breathed his last. Total peace) but it is so hard... because I miss him. Your poem brought tears to my eyes. Bless you, Jack! This made my day.
