The Faery Dance to Heal

Softly she drifts
across our screens,
light as a bird
and sweet as a stream

Huggling a gum tree
part of my home,
Over and ever
to wander and roam

To Dance like a dervish
Beki does fly,
Omi her shadow
flowing right beside

Having hats aplenty
and smiles of love,
Love is her blessing
it flows from above

Loved by us all
from way deep inside,
her words a serrature
to live life with pride

Kind and thoughtful
building us up,
warmth in abundance
overflows her cup

She found courage
throwing off worries,
shadow of sorrow
Lives in memory

But living again
among us now,
floating to meanings
shes touching the clouds

There is a melancholy undertone to this one , Beki has had a few rough spots in her life but she is getting better all the time this was to show her how I see her, I sent it to her 2 days ago and she said she loved how I see her, and made me cry I was so happy she liked it ... thanks for the read and the stars huni ... we should meet up for a coffee I am down here for five days .. Jade is at my house with Bj lol making sure they dont trash the place while I am gone .. she is such a treasure your girl I love her to bits ... much love and hugz Jayne x x x "We did not change as we grew older; we just became more clearly ourselves.

Dear Jayne

I did not Know you were still in Newy, I knew Jade was at your house because I rang her. Forgot my password, dickhead I am. When I rang they were all about to play games, don't ask, I never,Ha.Glad to hear you got some rest.I would love to meet for coffee but at the moment I have a few things on, which is a pain in the arse, between birthdays, doctors and going through stuff for the chuck out, plus a few other minor things I am finding it hard to get time for myself. When Kel has his shower, were of to the son and daughter in-laws to take them their present. If I had known Friday, I had the afternoon free. Next time you are here, we will arrange it better and hopefully your visit will be one of pleasure.I also hope they have not trashed the house, but you just get some rest and don't worry about them. I will talk to you later okay.Hi to the guy's, look after her. Love, Lyz.x.

I really liked the theme....

...but you seem to have abandoned your rhyme scheme in the 3rd and 8th stanzas, and that's not like you. Then, in the 7th stanza...you decide on rhyming "life", with the word, "life". But, like I said....I liked your theme... "Write on"! sincerely, @{:-{)}8==== docmaverick.

“Love is her blessing it

"Love is her blessing it flows from above", I like this lines, and they are really the main cause of Beki's healing. Healing the mind and heart is what motivates us, human beings, in our search for true happiness. Great write, Seren, Regards, Hugo
