She feels like a poem
covered in pearls,
lost in a meadow
or ocean of furls.

Taken down into soft sand
by sun wind and sea,
glinted by moon light
protected by trees.

Whistled by gypsies
with dancing  bare feet,
laughed into good humor
feeling so sweet.

Listen the poem
whose cadence is rich,
pull thread through her daydream
and take the first stitch.

Oh but that was such a beautiful portrait of Sunshine and I could see her so well!  Lovely Martie.

What a lovely tribute to our beautiful Karilea. She’ll be thrilled with this one.

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?
