A Lass

A Lass

A Poem by Tate Morgan
"

Lucy Hamilton whose light shone across an entire ocean, to brighten the moonlit sky upon my endless nights.

"


Lucy Hamilton Princess of Ireland

The brightest star in the night sky


I chanced upon an evening walk

beneath the stars with you

Transformed was I to hear you talk

so bright and shining too

 

Emerald eyes from which you gaze

taken from your lands of green

Shone back to me in loving ways

more beauty than I had seen

 

I listen for each and every thought

to flow from your beautiful mind

Everything you say I am then taught

in greatest measure and kind

 

Daughter and heir of precious dreams

sweetest of days morning dew

Oh much more ever than she seems

such is the beauty of you

Lucy Hamilton whose light shone across an ocean. To brighten the moonlit sky. Upon my endless nights.

Dear Lucy:
Each time Becky and I hear your voice on the phone we light up, look at each other and smile over the beauty that is you. We both wish you all our love from centuries and ancestors past and present.

you're welcome!
I am amazed. I mean, I live in the Ozarks. I'm a half educated hillbilly. I wander, a drifter in Nature. And I am sharing words with a man who has known royalty. That same man asked me to collaborate on a poem. Your fast becoming someone I admire. Thank you.

well any doubt of your affection is gone within the first stanza! She has a lovely voice and i love your depiction of her graces to sonority stemming from the her spirits resonance from the home she channels hallow notes indeed.
