in the library she sits

a poem for Writer's Cafe Patricia Wedel's birthday...April 23rd

in the library

               she sits

amidst books bound in leather

words waiting for her eyes to make them real

                         or in front of a keyboard

keys longing for her touch

they know her heart is a love song

            her soul is a versified countryside

                     a kaleidoscope of blues and greens

                                 dancing with the stars

indeed, she is springtime personified

twirling through a field of daffodils

playing ring around the rosy with life

sharing her love with all those on her radar

april 23, 2015 happy birthday dear pat!

may you celebrate many more in good health

i am fortunate to have such a special friend!

What we have her folks is yet another cracker from an increasingly and justifiably respected poet amongst us. My good literary friend Lydia Shutter 'Lydi' has a most versatile pen and writes for people to enjoy her words... Here, as might be seen is an example that exemplifies this particular perception.

I have no doubt whatsoever that PW loved her dedication, or that many others like myself, will do too
Thank You Lidi

dear Lydi... a darling poem with a
vintage aire... leather bound books
where fairies dwell... Cobblestone paths
with horse and carriage... I sit and dream
of gathering primrose and sipping
love's nectar. To have a friend who is
charming and quaint... and writes in a
garden where flowers faint... is a divine
providence. Amen I am truly honored.
Pat

[Lydia Shutter]

What a lovely tribute Lydia. I've just looked above and I see that it is . In fact a birthday tribute. I would be honoured and I'm sure she is.

[Lydia Shutter]

Pat is a lovely lady and has been on poetry sites with me over ten years. Her heart is filled with lacy imagery and romance. Thanks for the review, Ken. I know she will appreciate it too. Lydi**

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Ken... Yes, it is an honor to be
touched by a butterfly whose beauty
warms our heart and stirs our soul with
overtures of love and devotion. truly... Pat

I love the way it flowed. I remember when I would sit in the library and notice certain people reading to thier children and others just enjoying the time reading.
