Tender hugs

 

The vast beauty of heaven,

is told in ancient books of old.

Yet, when it taps upon our hearts,

teardrops of loss unfold.

 

My dear friend I am so sorry,

for your loss.

I hope this image kindly assures you,

that she is truly safe and warm. 

 

It is said, we each have a time,

when we thank the lord for our blessings.

The gift of family and dearest friends. 

The lessons that we learned,

and even the one's that we didn't do so well.

 

Blush-Blush-rolling of my eyes. 

I'm sure the haiku writers brag ever so boldly.

But that's another poem.

I send to you today a tender ray of hope.

 

We are sometimes boldly reminded,

how precious and dear life is to behold.

And you dear poetess....

are dearly loved and held precious to our 

hearts.

 

WE LOVE YOU MYLEE!

Is there a sweet place you could find,

to plant a tree for her.

So birds can sing and honor each

morning the friendship,

you and Danielle did enjoy.

 

Blossoms of love, hope, and peace,

to remind you,

how we can grow, reach out,

to loved one's when we are in need.

 

Tender hugs and birds of spring,

is my gift to you.
