Strawberry Lagoon

Strawberry Lagoon

Once upon a strawberry lagoon

Poetess Sylvia was traveling on Poetry Lane

with her keyboard striking dictions cords,

letting her free verse flow.

 

Poetess Sylvia whittled pages upon pages

on her banana-bread paper

etching the riddles of her heart

from fiction to fantasy to romance to

the skittle skies of imaginations...

 

Her soul sang the chorus

of her bittersweet sagas touching hearts

from country to country, nation to nation

with sweetness pouring inspiration...

 

Poetess Sylvia grew to be a renound writer,

but a sweet chariot friend to be cherished

like a treasure of faith,

not to be taken for granted.

 

Her sunflower readers supported her

as a person, writer, single mother

while they learned not to be 

mean, insensitive, nor selfish.

 

Poetress Sylvia blossomed in

a field of an artist's soul

singing her flag of American poetry.
