A Lass

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

Author's Note

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.

there is nothing more beautiful than the eyes and voice of an Irish woman, how gorgeously you have shared the love you have for her Tate.I almost in tears here... and beautiful too that her and Becky have both brought love into your life...

[Tate Morgan]

Tears were what I was working on .Thank you so happy that it touched you as well. What is more beautiful than a Irish lass of green eyes cased in honey hue and the lilt in her voice?

[Stella Armour]

nothing more beautiful Tate...i know that lilt...my husband was Irish...

[Tate Morgan]

The Irish voice is the closest thing to god I ever heard.

[Stella Armour]

soft and melodic, sensual in a kind of way...it lulls you like a lullaby

[Tate Morgan]

It is quite simply the most endearing of languages ever created.

[Stella Armour]

well, it is to be "God's own Country"

[Tate Morgan]

oh yeah the emerald isle!

[TrimarcoRansome]

Soulmates from across the miles...: ) Friends come from all corners of the globe, each bringing joy and smiles... I am a great believer in that we meet everyone in our lives for a reason and take and give to each. you really capture the essence of her beautiful soul here and how she endeared you both, beautifully penned as always

[Tate Morgan]

i agree and to listen to her talk if it doesnt bring a smile you must be dead.

[Veronica Chandler]

Such a moving tribute to the light which is captured in the stirring image and shines so brightly, I'm compelled to shade my eyes. While I do not know a thing about the beauty inside except the words you penned in honor of the light that shines from "emerald eyes," I feel she is and exceptional creature to capture you and your wife's dear hearts.
Bravo!

[Tate Morgan]

thank you i have 7 or eight poems here in her honor and i think she is exceptional

[Veronica Chandler]

Your thoughts of her exceptional nature are clearly captured here.

[Tate Morgan]

Where once i was thinking of sharing a life with her we have become best friends after that couldnt be.

[Veronica Chandler]

Beautiful...

[Tate Morgan]

there are a list of poems here to her that follow the course of that relationship and the crushing truths that we all had to live with

[Rogue]

This is a wonderful piece, full of love and positive light.
The emotions and care with which you penned the words comes across clearly.
A pleasure to read.

[Girl Friday (Sarah W.)]

A beautiful "ode" to a person who seems very important to you. I love the imagery, and the beat, flow and tempo of this piece are spot on. There is not a single word out of place, it seems, in this one, even though rhyming is not my traditional pleasure when it comes to poetry. Nicely done, my friend!

[Tate Morgan]

Your thoughts always bring a smile that i seem to wear the rest of the day .Thank you

[Manpreet]
