Tribute Seven

"The Welcomer" by: Eric L. Boddie Something about her relieves me of my breath Keenly, she supports all who reach her path Allusions of perfection seem to provide her wealth The complex simplicity of her being can only be described by math All her Beauty is clearly visible, she has no need for stealth

Skat brings so much warmth to this site by making everyone feel special. She was one of the first to welcome me here, too... A very nice tribute poem for her, Eric!
