My Lady by Michael Auguste A poet she is with tender words But so much more, this gentle one She is one of my dearest friends She lights my days, much like the sun And flowing soft hair clothes her form Her voice, melodic, to the ears A maiden in the words she writes She sometimes shares both love and fears A troubled life she's known, at best And yet, she finds a way to cope Her sleep produces little rest But even so, in her there's hope I've known her for just seven months Yet a bond so strong we both share A trust we know that cannot break And feelings that we treat with care Personal things you will not hear Her words are gifts, so like she is They're safely kept from eyes that pry That bring my life such happiness Her name I'll also keep from you Her privacy, important here I wish you had a friend like her To me her friendship is very dear My friend, I thank you, you're so sweet I wish you all the best in life A poet, a mother and a friend And to your husband, a good wife I'll be here if you've tears to weep Or just a smile, your heart to warm And give you strength if you should need My Lady, whose hair clothes her form |

Michael~ I believe you are right ... I can imagine that she doesn't even realize your words are about her ... but then again ... that's the way with friends. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge, I'm always honest with my friends, so this one so dear knows just how much her frienship means to me. She's a tower of inspiration, but more than that, she is also honest in every respect with me. Take care, Michael |
