For Helen


Helen Mary
-
Seeks
The
Blue
-
Sea worn glass
-
Beside the pool
-
Where the tide lays
-
On the shore
-
By
Rocks
-
Small
Stones
-
Sea fairies store
-
Though
Green
Glass
Glistens
-
On white sand
-
By
Oceans
Sent
-
To touch her hand
-
Helen Mary
-
Faithful
-
True
-
Seeks only ever
-
Sea glass Blue

Hello again Egal!

I was beginning to worry that you had run off to rejoin the 'real' world.

I missed being greeted by a new poem whenever I visit your blog.

:-)

Alas Dear Dash,

I am afraid this is not a new Poem.

I have just moved it to the front of my blog - It is called "Seaglass Blue" and is written for my daughter.

I have recently had to make a journey into the real world, hence my absence.

But I tok a ball of string with me so I could find my way back.

Now I just need to think.

Nice to hear from you! - visit any time.

Egal..

New or old, it's wonderful.

Your daughter has good taste, I might add.
It's the blue glass that I hand over to others who hold a place in my heart.
*hanging head*
Gosh, that sounds selfish...

No Mel, It sounds lovely
