Beautifully Penned!
Dearest suseanne carrol,
I especially love this heaven sent (acrostic) so beautifully penned just for the heart of you. Such tender beauty in truth. Maatkara is the essence of the Lords eternal poetry seeds. This is poetry in motion soaring in tender love, friendship and devotion. Without Maatkara’s love and divine caring, I would be lost here on allpoetry.com. Utterly beautiful in content and poetic beauty. You have found a true friend in her tender soul weaving you into heavenly wings of gold. Delightful Colours… A rush to the soul ensoul. Namaste Blessed Be to you and yours eternally~

A swallow fine flew to my room
as I was in my gloom
she swept my heart with such delight
her tale a tiny broom
And suddenly the dust did dance
by chords I never knew
the specks was caught in rays of love
as light embraced the blue

To pay lasting tribute to one you love by sharing a creation from your own heart, you are a blessing. Each line, even in its brevity speaks a multitude of emotions.
