.

you always came around about then
when you knew that I’d been crying
and you never once chastised me
but handed me tissues for my eyes
then you took my hand and held it
telling me things would be all right
while you raised me up like a queen
because you know I need attention
and you were never nothing but gentle
as you placed me back on my wings

.
it was then that you would whisper
that my very best color was blue


.

my mind won't rest and I don't sleep...
not even in my dreams ~ s. nicks

It takes a very special person to recognize a magical fairy when they see one.

There are those who clip wings and those who place them back where they belong. This is life's gift, while we learn to fly on our own.

Most beautifully expressed, dear Shellie. Love this very much, winged Poetess!

Love,
Margherita

Sounds like a very special person to me. I remember when I had someone like that. It is good that you have someone, when or if you need them.

I've been missing you, ss, and went looking for a poem of yours that I might have missed! ~ and voila! I found this tender-hearted poem.

Shel, I hope you haven't fallen off of that pedestal. That is where you belong! ~ and with your glorious wings spread!

Loveya!

Oh I would think so, that blue suits you sweet lady, you are quite clearly an angel with or without wings. A very gentle and tender poem full of love.
