Poetry Lady

For Jean-Marie

There is a lovely lady
I only know by her name
In this world of technology
nothing is the same

Trial and tribulations
many has she known
Kindness and guidance
is all she’s ever shown

Beneath that artful smile
and her gift of weaving words
Her body does betray her
what we see is barely a third

Of what she must endure
day in and day out
From her you rarely hear
complaint not even a shout

This little poem is just for you
my teacher my mentor my friend
To tell you how very blessed I am
so this poem to you I send 💜

    1. Thank you so much Sadje! She is hospitalized and in pain, I had hoped to bring a smile to her face. I got BIG EYES 👀. That works too! ☺️
