I Thought You Should Know

Missing image




I thought you should know

 




Angelic voices envy the lullaby of your smile,
and roses wilt in the brilliance of your laugh

The stars look upon your eyes as constellations...
charting each other's destinies by your tears

Fantasies dream of being like you,
dreams fantasize of your charms,
and you are simply...happy in your skin

You always lend an air to fresh breath,
and are a breath of fresh air...to the winds

Goslings feel coarse compared to your touch
as they run the course of your gentle strokes

You inspire the sun to shine, the moon to gleem,
and whether you know it or not...

inspire words from poets
because, you simply glow

You are the sun on a rainy day
the rain on a hot evening,
your very presence lifts even the bluest of souls
without even meaning to

You do not see the way in which you touch others
but...I do
for, I was touched by you, and...

I just thought you should know

    You are a poets' poet. You write things profound with such an easy flare -- your elegant words seem to illuminate the craft and art of poetry.

    You create such a well crafted poem with breathtaking ease. What a talent.

    Thank You. You inspire.

    I've always been more drawn to dark poetry, but this appeals to my sentimental side. This is very beautiful and leave a sweet dew on the lips of the reader. Excellent piece!

    What a beautiful poem for a friend... soulful and dreamy, yet so very real. This one glows with affection - just like the poet who wrote it. Totally beautiful, Billie Jean....all of us should have a hero

      Nic,
      In the tough times I am going through this friend has lent me his smiles, his help, his...heart. Yes we all need a hero, and the powers that be sent me this kind spirit. He is such a gentle soul, and I was blessed just to know him, and hope when we are both old and gray I can still look upon him as a friend, and an occasional savior. Thank you Nic for such tender words that they melt my heart.

      Blessings,
      Billie Jean

      Compliments like this make me feel like a real poet Annie. My humble thanks. This person deserves more, and has been a true friend to me, especially lately when I have faced some strong challenges. May I suggest another write similar to this I penned for my eldest daughter called "Could'nt Help But Notice". It is in my list titled my faves. Thank you again for such a tender comment. That is a real treasure.

      Blessed be,
      Billie Jean

    Beautifully Expressed

    I'm not sure which one of you is the luckiest, you or him. He sounds just like the wonderful soul that you are. This touched my very heart and I know he's gleeming ear to ear. You've not only managed to touch him but whom ever reads this little gem. Love you. Hugs~ Cuddles

      Thank you for the kind words. I will stow them away safely and look back on them in the times in which I feel less of a poet, and more of a hack. Kindness is free, yet priceless. Thank you for the gem of your comment.

      Blessed be,

      First let me say I peeked at your page and it was an utter delight! It is funny, I have called my children wee beasties for years, and now I meet another. LOL. Thank you for stopping by my bit of AP kingdom (no matter how shabby the accomodations may be) and leaving me such a sweet and charming comment. May fairies bless and guide you into mischeif and light!

      I will definately check it out. Thank you for reading. My friend has been there for me so much lately, and deserved more, but a poet can only give their heart in words after all. Your kind comment meant a lot, especially coming from one loving friend, to another loving friend.

      Blessed be,
      Billie Jean
