For all you have given to all of us, may this birthday bless you, Janet Marie, with all of your love in return


Passionate Woman

Passionate woman, delicate heart
Songbird of love from which lyrics depart
You are the essence of earth’s greatest hymns
You are the source from which music begins

Passionate woman, dreamer of nights
Wrapped in the glow of mysterious delights
Swept to our door on the wings of a dove
Bringing to us an indelible love

Passionate woman, mind of a sage
Speaker of wisdom and reaper of age
Where are the words that exude from your pen?
They’re written in phrases endowed to a friend

Passionate woman, maker of dreams
Following flow of the white water streams
Where did she go when she rounded the bend?
She left behind rainbows to comfort a friend

Thank you, Janet Marie
With Love
Liz

Oh mercy Liz, but is she ever going to love this!  Especially the reference to the ocean.  I wish I could wrap mine up and send it to her for her birthday, nope - better still - wish I could take it to her m'self!

Beautiful Liz, she is truly a kind, loving, considerate, and generous woman - and she write pretty darn good herself yanno?

Loved these lines m'friend:

Passionate woman, maker of dreams
Following flow of the white water streams
Where did she go when she rounded the bend?
She left behind rainbows to comfort a friend


~* Happy Birthday Janet Marie *~

Bet I will be saying that more than once today

Liz, this has such a beautiful flow as always. You have such an amazing talent, my friend.  

Happy Birthday JM!  Not only do you bring warmth and delight to us when "you" write ... but you bring warmth and delight when others write "about" you!

Best wishes to two of my favorite Passionate ladies,
/Kit

I am so touched and honored by your sharing of rhyme.
Me thinks you've left many a rainbow of your own...this one is ribboned with light.

Thank you very much dear poetess of grace...
