ELODEE ROE'S PAGE
Elodee Roe was the most special friend I 'never' met.  I fell in love with her expressive poetry straight away, and got to know her over the internet.  I'll never forget the kind person she revealed herself to be.  I'll never forget the plans she had for her poetry.  I always told her if there was any way I could help to get her work known to the world, I would do it.  Elodee left us on the 29th December 2001, so I am devoting part of my website to that beautiful person who I will always miss.  This way, her work can always live on, not just in the hearts of those who knew her.
Elodee

Always giving
even when they took
everything you had
A true angel in an unforgiving world
sheltering all in your path

A mother to so many
selfless, you loved even those who would harm you
A life of pain, shut out from the ones that mattered
still you carried others burdens

you left so many stunned when you went away
I felt it before I knew it
For never could it go unknown
such a light fading away

Your talent in all you left behind
will be admired forever
and those that knew and loved you
will always be blessed

Somewhere there is a beautiful garden for Elodee

PHIL WYATT 7th JAN 2002
Elodee Roe wrote more then two hundred poems, all of those I saw were testament to her remarkable expressive quality.
FRIENDSHIP

Friendship has no studied phrases
polished faces or winning wiles
friendship has no lavish phrases
never wears the surface smiles.

Friendship follows Nature's diction
shuns all embellishments of the Arts
yet boldly severs truth from fiction
speaks the language of the heart.

Friendship favors no conditions
scorns all narrow minded creeds
lovingly fulfills all it's missions
be in word or be it deed.

Friendship cheers the faint and weary
makes the timid spirit brave
warns the erring, lights the dreary
smooths the journey to the grave.

Friendship pure, unselfish friendship
through out alloted time and span
nurtures, strengthens, widens, lenghtens
my relationship with you, a gentle man.

RARE FINE ART

Chocolate
Captivating eyes
Hold me
Knowing you have
Found
The pathway to
The
Depths of my soul
Obliging prisoner
I await
Your muted summons
Submissive, enthralled
I yield to
Silent seduction
Your masterpiece
Rare fine art.

A Day Together

Today we spent together, and walked a cobble path
Planted flowers in beds prepared by hand
We shared the music of the meadowlark's song and
Laughed at the squirrels playing tag in maples strong
Captured, we marveled at the tasks of honeybees
Daring we examined the robin's nest lodged in old
Elder trees. We chuckled at new dwellers in small
Houses up for rent.
Together we spread a blanket, near the tiny elm, and
Enjoyed our basket in Nature's fragile realm. Discussed
Vilvaldi, and fads and crazy whims, the sea in her majesty,
Soft warming sand. We let the ocean breeze caress and mist
Our faces, played in the calm gentle ebbing tide.
Photos were taken, memories now are one, from the tiny snow
Drop to the setting of the sun.
Today we spent together, and walked a cobble path, and although
I never saw you or touched your gentle hand. I heard your voice
Very loud and clear, through words tenderly penned from a heart
Lovingly dear.

My Daisy

Gaze upon the daisy
Within a  bed of green
I see your precious center
The heart of golden cord
Protected by billowing clouds
White O' purity
Gracing fragile eyes
Allowing my heart to see
Beyond the beds of blacken soil
Into infinity
Where life has no beginning
Nor does it ever end
Only your treasured gold
Shining from within
You, my precious
Glitter from your heart
Sharing your flecks of gold
Now mine will glow again.
