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.

You know, Sissie, how much I treasure this poem...and you've kept it a gift worth giving, not more than once! I love you for it, and I love you, for you.

Thank you, Sissie...

and to everyone that reads it, God bless you!

Lovely qualities the sun gives to life, and Karilea truly shines through her poetry, which is as beatiful as her heart. This poem is a gift of affection and I think it's enchanting.

Karilea, HAPPY BIRTHDAY,

Nan

Thank you so much, my friends...but all of the credit is due to Martie...who knew me before she knew me....

and then decided to keep me, regardless.

I'm a humbled woman, who revels in your poetry.

Excellent Martie! But then that's what I've come to expect of you.
She's a great poet and person and I too wish her all the best.
