You Have the Gift

Diane, I am so proud to have you as my friend Forever young, bubbly and happy You found that secret formula Working your charm for tips In the best of upscale resto-bars Where clients indulge in micro vacations Longing to pamper themselves You never fail to enhance their experience With your generous luxurious smile And that natural glitter in your eyes You make them feel like The outside world no longer exists There’s no hiding or denying Your exotic trips have tinted your charisma Your long lavish hair complements your youthful heart You’ll never give in and get old Voracious traveller and lover of life There’s no job you’d rather do Than greet this classy crowd You have the party hostess flair The gift of reaching in for the pearl And getting the best of people With your charm it’s the challenge you love No one walks away forgetting your smile Untouched by your contagious love for life It lingers with them like an intoxicating perfume Read on air by invitation ~ May 1, 2022 'POETS HARBOUR' AP: 1st place 2020 Submitted on April 16, 2018 for contest NEW POEMS ONLY 2 sponsored by EMILE PINET - RANKED 1ST

It always warms my heart when I read a tribute to another. Seeing & appreciating the value in others we need more of, I think, as opposed to the opposite, which there's too much of. You've written a wonderful tribute here to your friend & it speaks volumes for you as well my friend. God bless. :) ~ Artsie

O Caren, you would be surprised. With all the lives you've impacted, I bet there are a lot more poems than you will ever know in the heart of each and every person you've helped. The ironic thing is they usually think that of course you already know.

wow, what a great description of a congenial woman, Line. I need to check this contest out to see exactly what he is asking for. You really painted her personality for us to picture her.(how old is she really??)

Line Gauthier

I think she is 55. She was a wonderful friend, we've recently reconnected.
