words are her refuge
in them, she finds strength
hope,
      love,
           comfort
they are her friends
and she gives them her all
they tell her story
and she shares them with us

words are her dreams
in them, she is poet
queen,
      mother,
              muse
they are her thoughts
and she gives them her life
they are her wishes
and she speaks them many times

words are her heart
in them she gives love
peace,
       joy,
            warmth
they are her gifts
and she gives them quite freely
they are her life
and she blesses us with them

I know you gift this to Cerenity, but I too find comfort in these words and thought...

Cerenity, you are blessed by your friends, and we are blessed in your presence.

Sven~
What a sweetheart you are to honor such a
sweet, sweet poet.

'they are her thoughts
and she gives them her life
they are her wishes
and she speaks them many times'


Yes, Cerenity gives all that and more ...
and with her friendship, I feel blessed.

*Hugs* to you, Sven.

Hi Sven,

Well you can imagine what I am doing right now, yes were's the tissue when you need it. I really can't find the perfect words to tell you how deeply this very moment is affecting me, Im not used to having someone else show such caring feelings towards me, and me knowing they are really meant. God does anwser prayers, I asked for true friends and he gave me just that. I find a sence of sereneness right now, a reasureness that everything is going to be alright, thank you so very much for the poetry and the loving friend that will always reside in my heart. I pray that your loving kindness will be blessed.

Love, Cerenity
