Poem in Response

Having read “Shadows“, a wonderfully evocative work written by a dear friend, the beautiful and very talented Floridian poetess, Holly Hunter, I was inspired to write this poem in response…

True love once shared will come again
Through shadows, into light of day
New memories speak to our song
From time spent at the Sad Cafe

      A warm welcome, my lovely friend Annabel, and thanks very much! Yesterday, I enjoyed reading your post, “Those Moments“, and wrote you a note which I was going to share, though soon realized that the comments function was unavailable, hahaha. So, here’s the message that I was going to send…

      I’m so glad to know you’re doing well, dear Annabel, and a new schedule sounds to be right on time. I hope Spruce is happy, too. Each day, I glance to see your postings, and treat my eyes to your most beautiful smile, beginning my day the same way. Thank you for sharing tales from the trails of your life, and poetry inspired through your precious soul. Best wishes always, my friend 🌻✨🥂
