anam cara


 the rays of the sun reached

the girl in the shadow

a smile passed

 the innermost and out

Dear O Molly:

I can see your joy in this poem, in the form of a smile. Short but very telling of interior feelings. Nice, little poem. Sincerely, Hugo

With gleaming inner soul...

My Dear Molly, With gleaming inner soul you bring the simplest smile... and forever mark our hearts with your poetry and words. The solar rays softly dancing across the silken and greyed shadows to ripple the folds of ones face into a creased smile ... beaming back in unison to that untold energetic sun. You have spread happiness and hope in this tale of such wonder in such a wistful twist and such wonderful wisdom. You never cease to amaze me with your poetry. My heart is happy from gracing your page today! Thanks so much for sharing Molly! Dale :)

I will be so bold as to wish

I will be so bold as to wish the exclusion of the second the in the first line and of the the in the last line, does it need them? Haiïku-like its vision and expression craves distinctness of words, more difficult to acheive than any other poetic form, with grace. The rays of sun reached the girl in the shadow a smile passed innermost and out. Just my feelings Molly, love from Ann
