this poem is dedicated to suthern who loaned me the words and now I gift them back to her, with love.A tiara of love that gives me surcease From pain that I feel when alone A crowning gem in a jeweled masterpiece More than rubies or diamonds has shone A crown of delight surrounds now my face And allows me a moment to feel A glittering light shows love's end of race That me becomes us, makes me real A halo of gold a nimbus of pride That shows pure delight and what's more The dazzling bedeckment with fire astride Shows best when love holds the floor A tiara of love a crown of pure gold Is what I wear, when with you! With wondrous imagining and stories untold The glory of love that's so true In passion, in pride, I stand by your side And proudly I say, "yes I do!" Accepting your gift with arms open wide The jewel of love that is you Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

This was a very beautiful write and I am sure that suthern will be honored that you dedicated it to her. Who wouldn't be with a piece as wonderful as this. The depth of your heart and pen show well in your writing. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |

Oh, Kethry... what an honor you've given me... and what a beautiful poem you've given to us all!!! I am simultaneously humbled and gratified that you took a phrase I used and created this wonderful poem... With a gift this lovely, feel free to use my words anytime!!! LOL suthern is indeed delighted... can you tell? *S* But to your credit, the poem would have earned my delight even without the dedication... Bless you, dear talented lady... and thank you! *S* And another big thank you to Marge, for pointing me this way... with only 20 minutes of library time (and no inclination to argue with my dinosaur computer *G*) I might not have seen this until Monday if you hadn't been kind enough to let me know. |
