Poem

Inspired by her poetic artistry, deep natural beauty and close friendship, I wrote this poem for Penny Granger. Please visit her site to enjoy her wonderful poetry and prose.

Four letters found in sharing
Hand in hand, one pen to write
Close friendship greeting romance
Line by line, their hearts unite

Poems by day, they met at night
Neath the moon where no one knew
From Tennessee to Durham
Marking time, their dreams came true

That was then and this is now
Deep in love, forevermore
What started as a comment
Those four letters they adore
