Tapestry Desire

Missing image
there is one prominent feature
in every tapestry worthy of its' threads

a focal point of interest
that justifies and validates
the value of all the surrounding threads
that encompass the whole work

the same is true
in the Literary community
we know and love as Allpoetry

one poet shines in her own right
but her selfless heart refuses
to bask in that light alone
but reflects her own light and energy
to illuminate the potential and talent
of those all around her

Her gracious words
of insight and encouragement
often brings new understanding
and appreciation for the words
that others have scribed

she lets every thread know of their importance
and that the tapestry of Allpoetry would be
incomplete without their contribution to the whole

thank you dear DESIRE, A God send to us all
and an dear and faithful friend
God Bless your dear heart

Author notes

Desire has always been a blessing to me and I thank God for her.
Love You

    BRAVO!! Well said! You have described her
    beautifully and perfectly. She is a treasure
    and a blessing to us all. She makes everyone's
    life better and brighter by just having the
    honor of knowing her. This is a terrific
    tribute to a loving and deserving soul.
    I wish you all the best.

    Bless Your Heart Dennis!!

    Oh My this swells my eyes and You know Dennis~
    You go over and beyond, give of self- selflessly~ The Poetic Bandits thrive
    because You help breathe air into its lungs You take the time to leave reminders
    for Life can rattle and roll~ but You don't forget Your Friends...
    and when I came back yesterday, my face was lit up and I floated around without wings~ Excited to be back but also because I knew You and others would be here
    to bring forth a smile~ One I was in the hospital thinking of how I miss everyone and came on to read this Gem penned~ You are so Precious my Brother!!

    I am Honored You penned for this contest, a Treasure indeed
    Love the message which touches me to the core
    Thank You Precious Spirit~ I will remember what You have done for me, always
    You took the time to write when You could have chosen to do something else
    and Your words and Energy...bring sense of Calm also Soothe like balm
    Keep that quill dancing Dennis
    I'm Blessed YOU are in my Life!!
    Please continue to Bless the masses
    Thank You for sharing Your Voice
    Best wishes in Sandy's contest~
    with love & light~ Desire~*~

    Surprise Ambush!!

    Desire is such an amazing poet, and this is a beautiful and touching tribute that you've left her.

    The first stanzas are so thoughtful and abstract, and very true, and then you pull us straight into the message of love in this poem. You never fail to blow me away.

    Thank you for sharing this with our dear poet friend!

    Love, Zach Estel.

  • Surprise Ambush!

    This is a lovely tribute to a fellow poet that shows how much she means to you. I'm sure she will love this poem that is well-written and highlights all her strengths as a person. Best of luck in the contest.
