Her words
like golden birds,
caged-
but longing to be free.
The guarded thoughts
from her poet's heart
inspired the poet in me
when she set them free
and they flew
into the internet blue.

yes she did have a way
of connecting from afar, touching
down, her landing, perfect

She and her poetry were a rare and precious gift.

Beautifully inspired...

Just lovely, Ida~

I didn't know her, to my regret.
