True Class (for Nikki - my last post for awhile)

by Jeff Mason — Read all 207 poems by Jeff Mason

This is for Nikki Wilson (T N Wilson), a person of true class; a beautiful, deep soul - my new muse. :) Nikki has a depth of spirit which many poets strive for. She is the daughter of one of my best friends, Beverly. This will be my last post for awhile.

Nikki

       People of

       true class

       shall rise --

       above

       all strife and adversity,

       no matter

       how daunting.

Jeff, this is not only profound truth in brevity but also a wonderful tribute to anyone who rises above it all. Beautifully penned; yet, you and your work shall be missed. I've not been around in awhile, though I have posted a few poems, due to health and an excessively busy schedule. While you may not have time to review, perhaps you can post a poem or two from time to time! Love in Christ~~ BonnieQ
