[hometext] => i wrote this for my sister, who turned 18 on the 17th of February... she deals with chronic depression and has lived with me since my mother left a year and a half ago... i wrote this to tell her how much she is loved and how proud i am of her and the progress she has made...
[bodytext] => Under the pale moonlight
A visage of porcelain peeks out Bearing Ocean filled eyes of turquoise And lines of pain Red cherries of life encircle the top Whilst a tornado rages deep within This little angel cries in her sleep For those who are lost and not to be found Painting by day Gazing by night The angel stares into an abyss Too great to conquer within her own mind Along came a spider It sat down beside her And told her a story Of a life attainable if only she would perchance to dream Of smiles instead of frowns Of laughter instead of tears Of comfort instead of pain Of fulfillment instead of disappointment 'Tis not this angel’s fault The world seems to have forgotten this diamond in the rough As it passes slowly by This wondrous artist sees her venue to thrive A chance bestowed A gift given To leave her past to the hyenas And dream of a future of music and wishes Look at this angel through my spidery eyes Her strength and loyalty To that which she makes important See her beautiful nature As she was meant to be seen The twinkle in her eye when a child says, “I love you” The spark in her heart when the music plays When the family calls When those who have forgotten remember where she is And how she got here… On her own Every new day a new way beckons Every new night the stars Smile upon this angel of love Every moment is special We know this As she will too… And the pale moonlight will continue to shine As the beauty and love Within this angel will continue to grow Everyday the lines of pain are diminishing Allowing her to see herself for the precious angel that she is… I love you, my Sister January 29, 2003 michele [comments] => 4 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 55 [informant] => LadyDama [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
