Ephemera

It is not without trepidation that I begin at last to write

For how does one do justice without appearing banal or trite?

I know I am not worthy of the task that lies ahead

But there is so much about your writing that I feel needs to be said

 

To see Ephemera on “Latest Poems” demands an immediate read

Another chance to devour your words with an endless insatiable greed

From fiery passion to sweet seduction and all emotions in between

From love or yearning, cold or burning, your words enfold me in your scene

 

With so few words you say so much, your point invariably succinct

And I am often left with the feeling your heart has opened up, and winked

Always thought provoking, each write a pure gem

You have the ability to make each reader feel your words are just for them

 

Ephemera, my teacher, my mentor, sweet poetess extraordinaire

The world is less intimidating through having you out there

I wish every joy to the author of your words so wise and sweet

And humbly give thanks for your talent as I lay this tribute at your feet.
