tiny

i felt
like thumbalina
itty bitty
and pretty
folded up in your big arms.

you blessed
in whispered wishes,
in perfectly placed
kisses,
i strung them up like charms.

So tender and romantic! Your mix of music and words make me want to twirl!

I love how you make words sing Sheila. Not all poetry inspires me to read it aloud but yours does. And the rhythms only ever add to the meaning, they don't distract from it. You have a gift and a skill that's special.
