Tender Render ~*Marge Tindal*~ ![]() The tender render from your pen picked me up and took me in clamoring the recesses of your mind that I could only hope to find Within your quill I feel the thrill of life colored with your ink Take me on to life beyond living on your brink Drop me on the shoreline of your castle's built so fine Let me feel the ocean's roar tide surging from you forevermore Lift me to the mountain crest view sunlight setting in the West Melting snow on covered hills unfurl now the daffodils Spreading chestnut branches wide shading all you feel inside Rest with me in hammock made between the branches of her shade To the rill of valleys wide babbling brook of your inside Enjoin me in the searching foray of knowing just what you will say Etched with ink upon my heart scenes you've stroked will not depart You have writ upon my soul tender render of your unfold Share with me your joy so tender painted with your indelible render ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

There are new people I will know. I know this to be true But they will never spark the glow I get from knowing you. There are new pathways I will tread Not knowing where they lead And I may profit or, instead, May fail to succeed. But there's one thing I know for sure That when I reach the end There's nothing that I can't endure Because you are my friend. Your words are like my greatest friends That lift me when I'm down. So many times my smile depends On whether you're around. You thank us all for being here? Marge, you must be unsound! The heart don't thank the skeleton For hauling it around. You are the heart and spirit of The beauty that you see. You fill our minds with hope and love And calm serenity. I know my world has been enriched Each time that you appear And, though it's just a little niche, Thanks, Marge, for being here ![]() |

Oh, sweet, sweet Balladeer~ Now you made this little heart cry. You have to know that I love your friendship so much. You've been more than a friend. The challenge of inspiration to this heart of poetry. More than anyone else you've inspired the best from me. You've encourage me to 'reach in' and in doing so ... reach out, so others can begin to see what this lady is about. For all the love you've shared written on my heart, thank you, my personal 'skeleton' for hauling around my heart. Love you ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
