“Love keeps the cold out better than a cloak.”
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
She Wrote
A woman sat in her study, her quill in hand
Penning down the stories of a life so grand
The ups and downs of life she did write
Painting a picture that gave insight
She wrote of the laughter and joys of life
The laughter that filled her heart with delight
She wrote of the struggles and heartache too
And the courage to keep pushing through
She wrote of the sorrows and the losses felt
The moments of despair, that had her heart melt
But she also wrote of the love that she found
The moments of bliss, when the stars did abound
She wrote of the hope and strength that grew
The inner courage that was so true
The woman penned her stories with grace
A gift that no one could ever replace

Take Care.

Love this!
Nice rhyming poem, KL. 🙂
This was great, enjoyable read, love the picture as well!
A great piece of writing and yes sometimes you just have to with the flow 🙂
Sometimes, the best words flow, unbidden!
Is this epic poetry, KL. It tells a story and rhymes at the same time. What did you think you were going to write? Quotes often take me in different directions, but usually better than I would have gone without them. 🙂 Thanks so much for joining in. I always look forward to reading what you write. 🙂
A very nice post
A unique take KL.
Beautiful post, KL! I love this! 💕
Beautiful choice.
