in depth look at poem: Well, what can I say? I chatted with her again and was so touched by her kindness that I wrote her 3 or 4 poems. This is number 2.


words disgrace you

Locked up in this world of words
that are no fair to your beauty...
they disgrace you.
they disgrace you.
for no matter what I say,
or what I write
I could never fully explain
how beautiful you are....
and how much you’ve done for me....
