Judy, JudyA Poem by Christina May ShanabergThe pompom queen, Judy Ponceby!
Judy, Judy
Have you ever seen a more precious face; There's no face that could take her place; After all the pain she has had to have seen, To be such a funny girl, full of beans!
Judy has nerves of molded steel And a love to give peace and heal; She is all that we see as a nightingale; She has seen the other side of Hell.
She has a smile broad enough to Cover her heart and see her through; She gives her all to the needy of us And she is the angel of our trust.
Judy, Judy, don't ever forget me, If, someday, I need you beside me, Because you are the wind of breath And the flower, at the time of death.
Judy, sweet Judy, you are so alive; You give my dying life some drive; From you I know the next place, My God with a smile upon His face.
Being CheekyA Poem by Judy Ponceby Skipping through the forest, Laughing with delight, Glimpsing my sweetheart, Off to the right. Sneaking up closely, Taking a peek. Watching him moving, I do not speak. Silently climbing, Up and out on a limb. Taking some acorns, And grinning down on him. Watching him move, unaware of my perch. Thinking how funny, He's going to lurch. Taking careful aim, Then glancing about, I whack him on the head, And he gives a shout. Laughing, and swinging, Out on a limb. Hanging upside down, And grinning at him. First he was scowling, Looking quite mad. Now he is smiling, And, boy, am I glad. Still hanging there, My knees over the limb, He approaches me slowly, And I get a kiss from him. His hands on my face, His heart in his eyes. Kissing so sweetly, With fun undisguised. Slipping from my perch, I settle in his arms. Feeling so safe, Loving his charms. Not a thing could be better, than being this close. with his heart to my heart his nose to my nose

Stepped on a thorn!

Size of a horn.
O, grrrrrrrrrr.........
Flesh all torn.
O, grrrrrrrrrr.............
So forlorn. |

OMG! I am sooo honored and a bit overwhelmed :) You are far too kind. I love this piece. Thank you most kindly. :) And indeed, I do believe and have written that God smiles on us with his blessings. And so God has smiled on me with your tribute. :) How wonderful :)

Being true has never been one thing but a combination of numerous many, too many to take them apart and say securely that it is mostly this. We can't. An angel who hangs upside down to accept a kiss from her lover will step on a thorn when she lands with her feet. He would have wanted to move his hands further up. A poem that speaks of many things, but mostly about finishing what one starts.

Beautifully well written, very well done Christina. It is also refreshing to see a tribute to those among us, even though I (sadly) haven't had the pleasure of knowing Judy.

Well, I reckon I'm the only writer at WC who doesn't know and cherish Judy! A fault I hope to correct shortly! Thank you for the lovely tribute to your friend, and friend to so many, Christina!
