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. E |
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. E |
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. El |
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.
