~~~
My heart soars
My spirit takes flight
My lips whistle a
turtle dove song
And though I do not
bear wings -
I am
the feather
in your cap.

Oh wow!

At first, my thoughts of the title were...
of course she's less than 30!
She's only 29!!!

Then I opened the gift
of your poetry...

and I saw
Annabelle winking at me...

for this...

This...

is Poetry!

Chris!!!  This is perfect!!
I like the easy feeling that is so full and light hearted,
and the simple truth in knowing!!!

The firmest friendships are formed with mutual adversity, like steal unites with the fiercest flame.
