Dedicated To Lady Peg
~~~~*~~~~

Gone Is A Poet
~~~~*~~~~

She's gone
Left us with a feeling
Of being alone
In a crowded room.
~~~~*~~~~

Though she left us
Treasures to remember
Her by
Her songs
Her poems
Sonnets
Words
Formed into lines
Falling into verses
Like soldiers on parade
Rhythms and loving rhymes.
~~~~*~~~~

Left the image
Of her picture in profile
Embedded in our minds
So we may treasure
Her Mona Lisa smile.
~~~~*~~~~

I Often wished
I could write about Her
But felt out of place
How Can A Peon, a Peasant
A Poet wanna be.
~~~~*~~~~

Have the right
To write
About a Lady, A Queen A Princess
A Goddes Of poetry
You tell me.
~~~~*~~~~

Now she's gone
And I feel all alone
In a crowded Room
Away From home.
~~~~*~~~~

You are a poet. Not a "poet wannabe." This is a wonderful tribute. I don't know her, but I'm sure she is very special.

My Dearest William,

Poet extraordinaire I have always considered you one of the best! This place in my life took me awhile to reach to actually walk away from where I had been born as a poetess. To leave behind all my wonderful friends they joys, tears, hardships, the beauty of their tales and wonderful rhymes their creativity that always is so sublime. With many tears as I removed first stories, then articles, then each poem one by one saving all of your comments poems and pic in tack. Some ask did you out grow the den heavens no, and some ask was it a problem with another member heavens no, was it you did not like the group Lady Peg heavens no. Leaving Ad and going to run FOS is a challenge in a lifetime it has the doorway to my future. I have always loved being of help even though I have my limitations and mistakes I make but to encourage every writer to keep penning to keep creative to strive to be something in the position where I leave for I can be of more encouragement to writers. I will finish my poetry in career in the challenge of a lifetime. William I cannot tell you how deeply this has touched me with your beautiful poem this is so beautiful and heartfelt my friend. I am taking it, putting it away for it is now the best poem ever dedicated to me in this lifetime, and it shines a warm light within my mind and embedded in my heart forever. Therefore, with many tears, many tears of Joy and sadness dear poet I must leave. You have masterfully given me a remembrance I will keep with me and cherish for the rest of this poetess life. Thank you William so very much you are dear my friend. One Poet that I shall never forget.
As so many of the family is here.

Love Always and Be Happy Creative and Expressive.
