Smiling Reply

Each of those who reply to me
Who leave their name on my poetry
I smile and breathe a soft thank you
As I read the comments left by you

My friends who reach out to me
With words of friendships charity
They fill me with a gentle glow
With softest love the words do flow

Each one I hold inside of me
A special part for times eternity
But sometimes I smile a bigger grin
Or feel deeper warmth flush my skin

This delight that floods through me
Is caused by such simplicity
I only have to see your name
To hear again your soul’s refrain

A friend indeed you are to me
Whose smile I enjoy delightedly
I thank you each and every one
And YOU for all you’ve ever done

Marsha

Such a heart has our Marsha
giving us such a warm rush of
Our own joy as we read and see
the wonder of her and her poetry

YOU,  darling girl....are utterly a joy to
have at PiP...

Marsha you have written exactly how I feel when I read my replies from all of you. This is wonderful and I am not the least bit surprised that you produced this wonderful poem. floria
