Come Home Soon

You’ve touched our hearts gently
with subtle words of rhyme.
Your cadence perfect,
the beat always in time.
You have shown us your heart
with your messages clear.
Telling us heartfelt stories
which we all love to hear.
Loving pictures painted,
images we can see,
complimented by rhyme,
haunting us, magically.
Awaiting your return
to these pages of blue,
with anticipation
and love for all you do.

I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life. a brand

Such a bond can certainly be developed with
another...and such a beautiful expression
of appreciation for another...Nicely done

Magnus, it is not hard to create a bond with another poet, is it? When hearts are laid bare you can't help but be drawn.
He is a wonderful poet and I respect all that he does.

Poetry is all that and more,
full of anticipation and self expression.
It is a universal language and yet
we're all uique in our own right (write)
This was just great Dee~

Dear Dee, here you give for what we live, a cause and zest for life, sunshine to the soul and ink to a pen that writes for you.
A lovely tribute to your poet friend, I enjoyed the read.

Hey dg, nice to see you here. I, too, can see at least two names on here that would have to be on my list. Seems you know me better than I realised.

Thanks for reading me again.

Honey ... I'm home!!!! ROFL (not claiming this one, just wishing for that "soft home")
Look the archives work for me too. Sometimes your heart just shines (well all the time actually) and I just wanted to tell you that this and all the other things you do to show appreciation to ALL those you come in contact with is why you are so very much loved. You own a piece of my heart for sure so make sure you don't forget to do the upkeep on it.LOL Wouldn't want the value to decline ya know. ~wink~
Hugs to you sweet poetess.

Recognize love for the gift it is and not a need that is out of focus.
