walking through the garden I have come upon a hidden corner once quietly set apart in now blooms with colors of every hue reds whites yellows pinks everywhere here she sits weaving and growing tales of love the birds sing songs of her heart she turns their songs into words and we are the ones who get to finally hear what they've been saying this is her home, her life her garden growing with love and with a new heart the wind speaks to her and she listens again -------------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

What can I say? Thank you! Sven, this is such an honor, I really appreciate it. You know, Passions has given me so much, there's no way I could ever express it, but well, I'll simply keep trying. Thank you again for a wonderful post and I'm very happy to be included in such a fine family of poets and dear friends!

Ah yes, Sven; another brilliant masterpiece!!! A wonderful tribute full of honesty to describe such a rare and talented and obviously caring person Pepper "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth." Percy Bysshe Shelley |

Sven, a bouquet of loveliness from your pen to my heart. As for the rose could you have done better than to set her in a garden. I don't think so. write on Kethry Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |

Sven~ This is such an accurate portrait of our dear Kathleen. You've certainly done the gallery proud, as she has done with the bouquet from her garden. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Sven, you've painted an Irish Rose beautifully... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Sven, This is her exactly!! Very well done. She is a special lady and I am glad you have included her in your gallery. Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |
