Sometimes the waters run much deeper
Than the eye at first perceives
Sometimes the autumn is much richer
Than the color of the leaves

Sometimes the heart is so much fuller
Than the mind could ever know
Like vibrant tulips lying dormant
‘Neath the white of winter snow

Sometimes a friend is just a friend
Until the spirit is revealed
And then the bloom remains within
The eye, the heart, forever sealed

Sometimes the friend is fortunate

You,,,dear Lady instill harmony in the world
You give everyone who knows you and/or reads you a bluebird of happiness...the song in your eyes and heart, makes life more meaningful, signficant, to all who have been blessed to know you.

What a lovely poem Liz, thank you for sharing.

Luv and hugs
